Monitors

Uptime monitoring that knows the moment your site goes down

Website and API monitoring with HTTP and HTTPS checks that run from multiple regions every minute. Tallwatch opens an incident only when several regions agree, so you act on real outages, not network blips.

Website and API checks

HTTP and HTTPS monitoring that checks the status code your site or API returns on every round. Response-content and latency assertions are on the roadmap.

Multiple regions

Six regions worldwide. Each monitor checks from up to six of them (three on the free plan), and at least two must agree before anyone is paged.

Consensus alerts

An incident opens only when at least two of the checked regions agree your target is down in the same round. Included on every plan, free included.

Dev-first

A clean dashboard now, with a REST API and monitoring as code on the roadmap.

Setup

Set it up in a minute.
Edit it anytime.

A monitor is just configuration. Name it, pick what to check, and choose where it runs. Change any of it later without starting over.

  1. Point it at a URL

    Add the site or API endpoint you want watched. Each round checks the HTTP status code it returns, so a page that loads but errors still counts as down.

  2. Choose your regions

    Run every check from up to six regions worldwide (three on the free plan). The more you pick, the stronger the consensus behind an alert.

  3. Consensus, by default

    Every monitor pages you only when at least two of the checked regions agree the target is down in the same round, so one flaky vantage point never wakes you. No setup required.

  4. Edit it anytime

    Interval, regions, and what you check are all editable later. Nothing is recreated, so the monitor keeps its history.
