One platform for every kind of check
HTTP with keyword and status assertions, TCP ports, SSH banners, DNS records and scheduled jobs — each with its own timeout and cadence, from several regions.

How it works
Three steps between a free account and knowing your endpoints are up.
- 1
Add an endpoint
Point Monitrx at a URL, host, port or DNS record. Pick the check type, how often to run it, and how long to wait before calling it down.
NameCheckout APITypeHTTP(S)Targetshop.example.com/healthCheck every1 minute - 2
We probe it from several regions
Your endpoint is checked on a schedule from several points around the world, so a problem that only some of your users can see still shows up.

Know the moment it changes
Consecutive failures open an incident that resolves itself the moment a check recovers, and your public status page updates without anyone touching it.
