Unclaimed

By Checkly Inc.

Checkly is a SaaS platform for synthetic and uptime monitoring: it runs scripted checks against websites, APIs, and network endpoints from global locations and alerts teams when something fails.

What it does
  • Checkly is a SaaS platform for synthetic and uptime monitoring: it runs scripted checks against websites, APIs, and network endpoints from global locations and alerts teams when something fails.
More detail
  • Monitors are written as code in JavaScript/TypeScript, Terraform, or Pulumi, or generated through AI agents, and the platform bundles alerting, status pages, OpenTelemetry tracing, and AI-assisted root-cause analysis.
Best for
  • DevOps and SRE teams that want programmable, code-first monitoring embedded in IaC/GitOps workflows, and engineering teams already using Playwright who want the same tests to run as production monitors.
Pricing
  • Subscription SaaS with tiered plans billed monthly or annually (annual saves up to 20%).
More detail
  • Hobby is $0/month with 10 uptime monitors, 1,000 browser runs, 10,000 API runs, 6 locations, and a 2-minute minimum frequency.
  • Starter is $24/month (annual) with 50 monitors, 3,000 browser runs, 25,000 API runs,
Main limitation
  • Non-technical users who need a no-code monitoring setup, and teams looking for in-process APM or deep infrastructure profiling rather than external synthetic checks.
