Status Pages

Create public status pages to display real-time uptime and performance data for your services.

What are Status Pages?

Status pages are public websites that display the real-time operational status of your services. They show which services are up or down and historical uptime percentages.

  • Real-time status of monitored services
  • Historical uptime percentages (7, 30, or 90 days)
  • Response time graphs for each monitor
  • Incident history with timestamps
  • Optional password protection (paid plans)
