One failed check from one place is usually the network, not your site. Uptime Beacon waits until a second location sees it too. Type your site to see how a check runs.
A common setup on the left, Uptime Beacon on the right.
It alerts you over one missed answer from one location.
A second location has to see it too. Until then it's flagged, not sent to you.
Second-location checks are on paid plans. The Free plan checks from Germany only.
Alerted at 03:12, you dig through regions, logs and incidents.
Ask your AI assistant. It finds the cause and marks the alert as yours.
Every plan, Free included. Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code and Codex. Read-only until you tick Allow changes, and nothing can be deleted over MCP.
An unwatched security certificate expires and browsers block the site.
Warned weeks ahead, renewed before anyone sees an error.
Free includes 5 certificate and 5 domain watches. The warning days shown are an example. You set your own schedule.
Built as a heavy web app, it shows nothing until it loads.
A plain web page. It shows even with scripts blocked.
Free includes 1 public status page. Your own domain on paid plans, branded pages on Pro and up.
Every failed check posts again, and the real alert scrolls past.
One alert per outage. Tap Acknowledge in Slack and reminders stop.
Email, Slack and signed webhooks. 1 alert channel on Free, more on paid plans. Paid plans add maintenance windows to pause alerts during updates.
Results come home to the EU. Checks run from five regions around the world. Our servers, the database and every stored result stay in the EU.
Data processing agreement on every planMost false alarms are a slow connection between one checker and your server. The fix is to ask someone else before you shout.
Pick the locations each monitor checks from. Each one keeps its own failure count and records DNS, connect, TLS and response time separately.
A monitor has to fail several checks in a row before anything happens. A single missed answer is logged, not sent to anyone.
Only when another location sees the same failure does an incident open. Then the alert goes out by email, Slack or webhook, and your status page updates.
Put everyone who answers alerts on it without the bill moving. Pro and Business include unlimited team members.
AI assistants, status pages and alerts on every plan. Paid plans add second-location checks.

Between us, we've spent more than 30 years running live systems at banks, fintechs, telecoms and SaaS companies, and taking the night calls for it.
Uptime Beacon is the monitor we wanted on those nights. It waits for a second location to see a failure before it wakes anyone. When it does, it tells you what broke.
We run our own products on it. Same team as Cost Beacon, built in Estonia.

No. Free has no fee and no fixed term. You get 5 monitors checked every 5 minutes from Germany, and you can upgrade from the dashboard whenever you need more.
No. A monitor has to fail several checks in a row, and on paid plans a second location has to see the same failure, before an incident opens.
Nothing runs on your servers. Add a web address or a server, pick the locations and you are done. Heartbeats work the other way round: your scheduled job checks in with us.
Each team you connect is read-only until you tick Allow changes. Even then nothing can be deleted over MCP, and every new connection sends you an email.
Start a maintenance window on a paid plan and nobody is alerted while it runs. Your AI assistant can start one for you too.
