Ping it. Hawk it. Now in private beta.
API, endpoint, and cron job monitoring that captures the exact failure moment — DNS timing, TLS handshake, response body, everything — so by the time you get alerted, the answer is already there.

The problem
It's figuring out what happened. By the time you SSH in, check the logs, try to reproduce — the evidence is gone. And you're debugging a ghost.
The shift
Instead of checking after failure, Pinghawk captures everything at the exact moment it happens. No reproduction required. No guesswork. No SSH.
🦅 Hawk Mode
At the moment of failure, Pinghawk automatically captures a full forensic snapshot — DNS, TLS, TTFB, response body, everything. No setup required. It's always watching.
Also watches over
Silent failures are the worst kind. Your backup stops running at 2am. Your sync job starts skipping records. Nobody notices — until it's too late.
Pinghawk's dead man's switch pings a unique URL at the end of each job. Miss it once — you're alerted within minutes.
An expired certificate means your API goes dark for every user instantly. No warning, no grace period — just failures.
Pinghawk warns you at 30, 14, and 7 days before expiry. Automatic. No configuration needed.
How it works
No agents. No SDKs. No YAML. Paste a URL and you're monitoring.
Any URL. Set your check interval. Done. Custom headers and auth tokens coming at launch. No agents, no SDKs, no YAML.
Pinghawk checks your endpoint every 30s–5min. Three consecutive failures confirm a real outage — dramatically reducing false alerts from transient blips.
When something breaks, your alert includes the full Hawk Mode snapshot — DNS, TLS, TTFB, response body. You know the root cause before you open your laptop.
When your endpoint recovers, Pinghawk sends a resolution alert with total downtime and incident link. One incident, two alerts — down and up. No noise in between.
Features
Every feature earns its place. If it's here, it's because you'll actually use it.
Verify from 3 global regions simultaneously. If two agree it's down, it's down. No false alarms from local network blips or transient issues.
Warned 30, 14, and 7 days before expiry. Never get caught by a certificate error in production again. Works for any domain.
Dead man's switch for your scheduled jobs. Know immediately when a backup, sync, or cleanup task silently fails to run.
Shareable, branded pages your customers can bookmark. They stay informed. You get fewer "is it down?" support messages.
One alert per incident. Pinghawk goes quiet once you know. Then sends a recovery alert when it comes back up. No repeat pings, no noise.
Continuous latency monitoring with degraded and critical thresholds. Catch slowdowns before they become outages — not just 5xx errors.
Monitor authenticated endpoints with custom headers, auth tokens, and POST requests. Works with any API — public or private, REST or GraphQL.
Paste a URL. Pick an interval. Done. No agents, no SDKs, no YAML. If setup takes more than a minute, we failed.
Alerting
Every alert includes the endpoint, response time, region data, and Hawk Mode snapshot — so you can act without logging in first.
The difference
Most tools stop at "something is wrong." Pinghawk answers the question that actually matters.
The alert used to be the beginning of the investigation.
With Pinghawk, it's the end.

Pricing
Priced for developers who ship things themselves. No per-seat fees. No hidden limits. No "contact sales."
On the roadmap
Check more than status codes. Define expected response shapes — alert before users hit a data bug.
