Pinghawk — Know why APIs fail
All activity
When your API fails, Pinghawk shows exactly what happened — at the moment it failed. Instead of a generic “API is down” alert, it records DNS, TLS, TTFB, and the response body — so you know why it failed, not just that it failed. It captures multiple snapshots across failures and catches silent issues like cron jobs and SSL expiry. Free during beta — would love your feedback if this solves a real pain for you.
