Alert With Action
Not Distraction

Every alert flows into incident response, so your team knows exactly what to do.

Stay ahead of failures

Upstat makes it easy to monitor what matters. View all monitors in one clean, paginated list with real-time status, region checks, and filtering. Instantly spot failures and prioritize what needs attention—without the clutter.

And when something goes wrong, alerts are already in motion. Define who should be notified and what actions should follow—all from the same system.

Monitor Status Filters

Quickly filter by monitor status—up, down, or partial—to surface what matters most.
Paged & Sortable Monitor List

Stay performant at scale with a clean, sortable, and paged view—optimized for speed and clarity.
Event-Based Alerting

Define who gets notified on monitor state changes—like status down or recovery.
Alert-Driven Automations

Set up if/then rules that trigger responses when alerts fire—no manual handoffs.

Monitor everything

Upstat supports HTTP/HTTPS checks, API endpoints, SSL certs, and custom headers—all from multiple regions. Monitor what matters to your business, not just what’s easiest to set up.

Whether you're watching third-party services, production APIs, or internal endpoints, setup takes seconds and scales cleanly.

HTTP, API, and SSL Checks

Monitor any endpoint with method, payload, and certificate support included.
Custom Headers and Auth

Add headers, tokens, or keys to simulate real production traffic in every check.
Multi-Region Coverage

Run health checks from multiple regions to detect local outages or partial degradation.
Simple, Fast Setup

Start monitoring any system in under a minute—no agents or setup scripts required.

Turn alerts into action

When a monitor fails, every second counts. Upstat lets you define what happens next. From triggering incidents to notifying specific teams, you can connect alert events to response workflows without hesitation or handoffs.

Our automations lets you use simple if/then logic to decide how alerts flow into incidents, notifications, or downstream actions—so your team can respond faster and stay consistent under pressure.

Alert-Triggered Incidents

Automatically create an incident when a monitor meets your failure criteria—no manual triage needed.
If/Then Automations

Use simple logic to automate your response—“if this monitor fails, then alert this role or launch this workflow.”
Consistent Escalation Paths

Remove guesswork from critical moments—alerts always route the same way, every time.
Integrated with Monitor Settings

Define alert behavior directly from your monitor configuration—no separate tooling required.

Understand what happened

Monitoring isn’t just about uptime—it’s about knowing what failed, where, and how it impacted the rest of your system. Upstat gives you real-time status across all monitors and regions, along with a clear timeline of what changed.

Use filters to focus on the most important failures, scan state transitions quickly, and trace alerts back to the incident they triggered—all without leaving the monitoring view.

Live Monitor States

See which monitors are up, down, or partially degraded—instantly and across all regions.
State Change Timeline

View recent transitions and quickly understand the sequence of failures and recoveries.
Filter by Impact

Focus on key monitors using filters for status, severity, or affected systems.
Incident Linkage

See which incidents were triggered by each monitor to understand downstream effects.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Upstat's monitoring and alerting capabilities.

What types of monitoring does Upstat provide?

Upstat includes HTTP/HTTPS uptime monitoring, API endpoint monitoring with custom request validation, and heartbeat monitoring where services actively report their health status. All monitoring runs from multiple global regions for comprehensive coverage.

How does multi-region monitoring work?

Each monitor can run from multiple regions simultaneously. Upstat's consensus logic prevents false alarms from transient network issues by requiring failures in multiple regions before triggering alerts. This provides global perspective while reducing noise.

Can monitors automatically create incidents?

Yes. Configure monitors to automatically create incidents when health checks fail. This reduces detection-to-response time by eliminating manual incident creation steps during critical outages.

How does alert routing prevent notification fatigue?

Upstat includes intelligent alert suppression rules, maintenance window awareness, and configurable escalation policies. Alerts can be routed based on severity, time of day, and on-call schedules to ensure the right people are notified without overwhelming your team.
