How it works
From configuration to incident response in three simple steps.
Configure your checks
Set up HTTP, DNS, SSL, TCP, API, or Page Speed checks in seconds. Choose your probe locations, frequency, and alert rules.
Probes run from Edge Hosts
Your checks execute from real residential connections worldwide — the same networks your users are on. Not from data centres.
Get alerts & dashboards
Instant alerts via email, Slack, webhook, or PagerDuty. Real-time dashboards with uptime grids, response time charts, and incident timelines.
Six probe types. One platform.
Monitor every layer of your stack from the networks your users are actually on.
HTTP / HTTPS
Monitor URLs with GET/POST requests. Validate status codes, response times, and body content matches. As fast as every 30 seconds.
DNS
Resolve domains from residential resolvers worldwide. Verify records match expected values and track propagation times.
SSL Certificate
Track certificate validity, expiry dates, and chain completeness. Get warned before certificates expire — not after.
TCP / UDP
Port connectivity checks from real user networks. Verify your services are reachable where your users actually are.
API Workflow
Multi-step API monitoring: authenticate, make requests, validate responses. Test entire workflows, not just endpoints.
Page Speed
Full page load timing from residential connections. Measure TTFB, DOM ready, and complete load — real-world performance.
The real world advantage
Every competitor runs probes from data centres. We run them from the same residential and business connections that your users are on. That changes everything.
Real residential networks
Probes run from home broadband connections on real ISPs — the same path your users take. Data centre probes miss ISP-level issues entirely.
Catch what others miss
Residential IPs aren't on cloud provider allowlists. If a CDN is accidentally blocking residential traffic, Pulse catches it. Competitors can't.
Real DNS resolution paths
Your users resolve DNS through residential resolvers, not cloud DNS. Pulse tests the same resolution path and catches propagation issues others miss.
Genuine network conditions
Real-world latency, packet loss, and ISP routing — not the pristine connections between data centres. See true end-user performance.
Smart incident detection
A single probe failure doesn't mean your site is down. Pulse confirms incidents across multiple locations before alerting you — eliminating false positives without sacrificing speed.
Probe fails from one location — immediately re-probed from 2 more hosts in the same region
2 of 3 probes fail in one region — confirmed regional failure
3+ regions report failure — global incident triggered
Alerts delivered in seconds via email, Slack, webhook, or PagerDuty

Status pages, from free
Every competitor charges $29–79/month extra for status pages. With Pulse, a shared status page is free on every account, and a custom branded page on your own domain is just $2/month. Give your users a professional page they can trust.
