How it works

From zero to monitored in 2 minutes

01

Add your URL

Paste your website or API endpoint. Choose HTTP method and expected status code.

02

We start watching

PingVault checks your endpoint every 30–300 seconds on a schedule locked to your plan. Two consecutive failures trigger an alert.

03

Get alerted instantly

The moment a check fails, Slack, email, and/or Discord alerts fire, with full incident details.

Everything your uptime monitoring needs

Rapid recheck before alerting

PingVault runs a fast recheck before firing any alert, so a single network blip never wakes your team up at 3am.

SSL certificate monitoring

Auto-detect expiring certificates 14 days before they break your site.

Instant alert delivery

Mean time to alert under 60 seconds. No batching, no delays.

Incident history & timeline

Full downtime history, duration, and response time trends on every monitor.

Public status pages

Publish a branded status page at your own domain to keep users informed during incidents.

Pause & resume

Pause monitoring during deployments to avoid false alerts. Resume in one click.

Uptime monitoring is the automated process of checking whether a website, API, or service is accessible and responding correctly at regular intervals. When a check fails, an alert is sent to your team immediately.

For production services, check every 60 seconds or less. PingVault's Pro plan checks every 60 seconds and Team plan every 30 seconds, fast enough to catch issues before users notice.
What's the best uptime monitoring tool for startups?+
