Real-Time Availability Monitoring
PingSled gives freelancers and junior developers a free, no-nonsense way to watch their projects, catch downtime before clients do, and prove their work is reliable — without spending a dime on enterprise tools.
The problem you already know
You just deployed your first client site. Or your portfolio. Or a small SaaS you built over a weekend. Now you're waiting — hoping nobody notices when it goes down at 2 a.m. because a dependency broke, a DNS record expired, or your $5 VPS ran out of RAM.
Enterprise monitoring platforms cost $20–$50 per month, require credit cards, and overwhelm you with 47 metrics you don't need. You just want to know: is it up, and if not, tell me immediately. Most junior developers and freelancers skip monitoring entirely, which means they find out about outages from angry clients or confused visitors — not from themselves.
What PingSled does for you
PingSled is built for people who ship code, not for DevOps teams with budgets. You add a URL, we check it every 60 seconds from three locations, and you get an instant alert the moment something breaks — via email, Telegram, or a webhook to your own system.
60-second checks, three locations
We probe your endpoint from Frankfurt, Tokyo, and Ashburn every minute. If all three fail within a 5-minute window, you're notified. No false alarms from a single flaky node.
Alerts that actually reach you
Email notifications go to your inbox within 30 seconds of a confirmed outage. Telegram users get a message from the @PingSledBot with the status code, response time, and a direct link to the incident log.
Free tier that doesn't trap you
Five monitored endpoints, 30 days of public status history, and all alert channels — completely free. No credit card. No watermarked reports. Upgrade only when you need more than five URLs.
Public status pages you can share
Every account gets a shareable status page at status.pingsled.io/yourname. Send it to clients as proof of uptime, or embed it in your portfolio to show you care about reliability.
SSL expiry and response-time tracking
Beyond simple up/down checks, PingSled warns you 14 days before an SSL certificate expires and flags when response times exceed your configured threshold — default 2 seconds.
Downtime reports for client meetings
Export a one-page PDF report showing 99.8% uptime over the last month, with a timeline of each incident and its duration. Looks professional, takes zero effort to generate.
Built for your workflow
PingSled fits into the tools you already use. Add monitors from the CLI, trigger your own scripts on incidents, or pull historical data into your dashboard.
REST API with API keys
Create, update, and delete monitors programmatically. GET /monitors returns your full list with current status, last check timestamp, and average response time. POST /monitors accepts a URL, check interval, and notification preferences. Rate-limited to 120 requests per minute on the free tier.
CLI tool for terminal lovers
Install with npm i -g pingsled-cli. Add a monitor with pingsled add https://your-site.com --notify telegram. View live status with pingsled status. Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows via WSL.
Webhooks for custom integrations
Configure a webhook URL and PingSled sends a JSON payload on every state change — up, down, or degraded. Include the HTTP status code, response time in milliseconds, checking node location, and a unique incident ID. Hook into Slack, Discord, or your own incident management system.
GitHub Actions compatibility
Use the PingSled status API in your CI pipeline to verify your staging environment is healthy before merging. A simple curl call to api.pingsled.io/v1/monitors/{id}/latest returns the last check result — fail the build if it's not green.
Open-source alerting adapters
Community-maintained adapters for Grafana Alerting, PagerDuty, and n8n are available on GitHub under the MIT license. Contribute your own adapter and get a free Pro tier for a year.
JSON and CSV data exports
Download your monitoring history as JSON or CSV for any date range. Includes per-check timestamps, HTTP status codes, response times, and node identifiers. Import into spreadsheets, Datadog, or any analytics tool you prefer.
