YoPingMe is live: free uptime monitoring from three regions

Uptime monitoring is one of those tools everyone needs and nobody wants to think about. The big suites solved this by making you think about it a lot: setup wizards, per-seat pricing, sales calls. We wanted the other thing — paste a URL, pick where to get yelled at, go back to work.

So that’s what we built. YoPingMe is live, and the whole v1 is free.

What it does today

• Five kinds of checks — HTTP, keyword, SSL, ping, and TCP, each monitor checked every 5 minutes.
• Three regions — every check runs from Frankfurt, Virginia, and Singapore.
• Alerts that wait for consensus — before anything pages you, the outage is confirmed from all 3 regions. A hiccup on one network path is not an incident, and we treat it that way.
• Email, webhook, and Slack alerts — with sane defaults, so a single dropped packet doesn’t page anybody.
• 30 days of raw history — response times and check results, so you can spot the slow creep before it becomes an outage.

The signup wizard runs a live first check from every region while you’re still typing — you’ll see real results before you’ve picked a password.

What “free” means here

There is exactly one plan right now: $0 for 10 monitors. No card, no trial clock, no contact-sales button. Paid plans with higher limits are on the roadmap, but today the free plan is the whole product.

What’s next

This is a roadmap, not a feature list — none of it exists yet: status pages, SMS alerts, paid plans, API keys, teams, and more regions.
