StatusDrift keeps a close eye on your websites, APIs and infrastructure so you hear about problems before your users do. Set up a monitor in seconds, pick a check interval, and StatusDrift will ping your endpoints from multiple regions around the clock. The moment something drifts - a slow response, a failed request, a certificate about to expire - you get notified and a new incident is opened automatically. Monitor anything that speaks a protocol: - HTTP and HTTPS checks with status code, header and keyword assertions - Ping and TCP port checks for servers and services - SSL/TLS certificate expiry monitoring - Keyword monitoring to catch silent failures and broken deploys - Multi-region checks so you can tell a real outage from a regional blip Every incident page shows a timeline of what happened, which regions were affected, how long it lasted and the response of each check along the way. Mark incidents as investigating, identified, monitoring or resolved and keep your team in sync. Plan maintenance windows ahead of time so alerts stay quiet and your status page communicates exactly what's going on. No more 3 a.m. pages for a planned database migration. The home dashboard gives you a live rollup of everything you're watching - total monitors, how many are up, down, warning, paused or with certificate issues - plus your most recent incidents in one place. Each monitor comes with a response time trend chart covering the last hour, day, week or month, with average, min and max broken out per region so you can spot slow drifts long before they turn into outages. Organise monitors into groups by service, team or environment. Development, staging and production each get their own color-coded badge, so you always know what you're looking at. Instant push notifications directly on your phone Who it's for: Developers, SREs, DevOps engineers, indie hackers and small teams who want serious uptime monitoring without a seven-figure observability stack. If you own a website, an API or a handful of services and you want to catch problems before your customers tweet about them, StatusDrift is for you. Install StatusDrift and catch the drift before your users catch it.
