Pinghawk — Know why APIs fail

About

Full stack developer building Pinghawk, an API monitoring tool focused on understanding why things fail, not just detecting downtime. I enjoy working on backend reliability, debugging, and building tools that solve real-world problems developers face every day. Currently exploring ideas around observability, distributed systems, and developer experience. Building in public and figuring things out along the way.

“API is down” — but by the time you check, it’s already fine

This has happened to me more times than I can count.

You get an alert that an API is down.
You open logs, dashboards, traces

and everything looks normal again.

No clear signal of what actually failed.
