Open Source API Monitoring Made Simple
Self-hosted uptime monitoring and alerting for your APIs. Free, transparent, and built by the community.
Problem
API Downtime Costs You Users
You're out having fun while your API is quietly breaking and it's costing you money, trust, and users.
No One Told You
Users won’t always report issues they just bounce. Meanwhile, a crucial endpoint might be throwing 500s silently.
You Found Out Too Late
You only check logs when someone complains. By then, hours (and trust) are already lost.
Trust Slips Away
First downtime, then doubt. Users start expecting bugs and stop relying on your service.
Bugs Go Unnoticed
Without monitoring, even simple bugs sit unnoticed, slowly chipping away at your user experience.
Wasted Hours Debugging
You spend hours guessing what broke instead of having clear logs and real-time alerts that show exactly what happened.
Churn Increases
Users drop off when things don't work and once they're gone, they're not coming back.
Solution
You Stay Focused. PingStack Watches Your APIs.
No more guessing. PingStack monitors your endpoints automatically and alerts you the moment something’s off before your users notice.
Flexible Monitoring
Set the check frequency that fits your needs. PingStack adapts to your setup and runs in the background quietly and consistently.
Instant Alerts
Get notified via email or SMS the moment something breaks. No more waiting for bug reports or angry customers.
Full Request Logs
Every request is logged: status codes, response times, and errors so you can debug faster and sleep easier.
