Uptime monitoring + status pages in one product. Monitor goes down, status page updates, subscribers get emailed. Setup in 5 minutes for free. Existing options are either self-hosted (costs time), full observability platforms (complex + expensive), or status-page-only tools (clunky + expensive). Upwarden just does the middle part. HTTP, TCP, DNS, WebSocket, Ping, Heartbeat monitoring down to 30s. 7 status page themes. Incident lifecycle. 8 notification channels. REST API. Free tier available.
Hey! Solo founder here.
I'll skip the part where I pretend this is a new category — Better Stack, Hyperping, and others exist. Built Upwarden because the options felt like either too much or too little.
Self-hosted tools cost time and go down with your server. Observability platforms are powerful but a lot of product for a small team that just wants to know if the API is up. Status-page-only tools need separate monitoring wired in.
Upwarden does monitoring + status pages + incidents + notifications. Nothing else. When a monitor fails, status page updates and your customers get an email.
What matters:
- 5 minutes from signup to live status page. No YAML, no integration tokens.
- You pay for monitoring capacity, not seats or subscribers. Bill doesn't change when your team grows.
- 7 status page themes. The Neobrutalism one is objectively the best. I will not be taking questions on this.
Just launched. Looking for early users who'll be honest about what's missing.
