How do you know whether a service is down?

We request each service from our own servers every five minutes and record what it answered. A single failure is re-checked before it counts, so one dropped request never turns a service red here.

Is it down for everyone or only for me?

If this board shows a service as up, it is answering our servers, so the problem is likely to be your network, your device or your session. If the board shows it down, our checks are failing too and it is not just you.

Do you collect reports from users?

No. Everything here is our own measurement from outside, which is what your users see. That also means an outage that only affects signed-in users or one country can be invisible to us.

Can I be told when a service goes down?

Yes. Open any service and ask to be notified: a free account holds ten services and alerts by email, Slack, Discord or Telegram.

How this board works

Every service here is an ordinary monitor in ServerInspector, checked every five minutes from our servers in Frankfurt. A failure is re-checked before it counts, so one dropped request never turns a page red. When two checks in a row fail, an incident opens and the page says so with the status code the service answered. Uptime figures are what we measured, not what anyone published.

We are not affiliated with any of these services, and this is not their official status page. It is what our checks see from outside, which is what your users see too.
