Checkly is the easiest way to monitor your API and browser click flows from a single dashboard. We run your checks from multiple global datacenters and alert you when things go south with SMS, Pagerduty etc. Add team mates, call checks from your CI/CD pipeline and publish a status page under a custom domain. Oh, and we also do SSL expiry checks!
This is the 2nd launch from Checkly. View more

Hi, I'm Tim, the creator of Checkly. I started Checkly as a solo founder and launched on PH with a beta version in 2018. We now serve more than 250 paying customers like Vercel, 1Password, and Humio. We also added soooo many cool new things — like a free plan for developers 💕 — that I thought it was time for second Product Hunt post. Today, Checkly is a monitoring platform for developers working on modern web apps: - Frontend monitoring using real browsers and Playwright & Puppeteer scripts. - API monitoring with assertions and flexible Node.js based setup / teardown scripts - Check on a schedule or trigger checks from GitHub PRs. Kinda like E2E testing! - Alerting through Slack, Pagerduty, Discord, SMS, Webhooks etc. etc. - 20 global monitoring locations - Free public dashboards - Public API to create checks programmatically To monitor your frontend, we run JavaScript and open-source powered browser checks. You can dive into the code yourself or use Headless Recorder (https://www.producthunt.com/post...) our popular open-source Chrome extension, to create Puppeteer and Playwright scripts. Developers can use our free plan that comes with everything you need to monitor small projects. I would love to hear any feedback on the product and how we can make Checkly even better; whether for your private dev project or your business use cases. 🙏 Check it out at https://checklyhq.com/

@bogdan_ionita that would be awesome. Just sign up for a trial. That will give you all the features. We automatically convert your trial to a free plan BTW so there are really no down side ;o)

I was actually just looking at Checkly two days ago. Its lovely, but missing a critical feature that I need in my business case. I need to have other services "check-in" every XX minutes. If they have not checked in then they are down. The reason for this is they are systems that do not have inbound webhooks or are isolated for outbound only.

@kellykampen Gotcha, we use this cron type / dead man switch monitoring ourselves too. If you wish, give this roadmap issue a bump https://github.com/checkly/publi... because you are not the only user bringing this up. In the meantime, I'd recommend https://healthchecks.io/. We use it and it's a great companion to Checkly.

@kellykampen @tim_nolet1 What you're looking for are cron monitoring services. Healthchecks.io is one but there are heaps of similar ones.

@tim_nolet1 thanks so much for the info. I upvoted the feature as well. Ultimately it would be ideal to have all status checks (web, api & cron/dead man) in a single app. Then its "Take my money please" :)
