Uptime monitoring and status pages for software teams

Visit OnlineOrNot

OnlineOrNot is an uptime monitoring service that watches websites, APIs, cron jobs, and heartbeats, alerting teams when production systems fail. It confirms failures before sending notifications to reduce false positives, and provides status pages for communicating incidents and maintenance windows to customers.

Features include website checks with configurable HTTP methods, headers, and bodies; API monitoring with assertions on status codes, response text, and JSON values; Playwright browser checks running in Chrome; cron job monitoring via check-in URLs; and heartbeat monitoring. Alerts route to email, SMS, Slack, Discord, Telegram, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, incident.io, Grafana OnCall, Microsoft Teams, and webhooks. An MCP integration connects coding agents to checks and status pages, alongside an OpenAPI-backed HTTP API and a CLI. Status pages support subscribers, custom domains, private pages, and uptime history.

OnlineOrNot is aimed at developers, agencies, founders, and software teams. It offers a free Hobby plan for personal projects, a Pro plan for production applications with unlimited users and usage-based add-ons for monitors and browser check runs, and a custom Enterprise edition with dedicated support and an SLA. A 14-day trial is available.
