BACKSTORY:
I was paying $79/mo for BetterUptime to monitor my side projects. That felt ridiculous for a simple uptime checker. So I built StatusPing.
WHAT IT DOES:
• HTTP/HTTPS monitoring (60s intervals)
• Email/Slack/Discord/Webhook alerts
• Public status pages with uptime graphs
• Free tier: 3 monitors
• Pro: $9/mo for 20 monitors
TECH STACK:
Next.js 14, PostgreSQL (Neon), TypeScript, Vercel. Entire stack costs ~$5/mo to run, which is why I can price it at $9 instead of $79.
I'd love your feedback! What features would make this a must-have for your projects?
