1. Add a URL to monitor and choose the checks to run.
2. StatusNow checks it on a schedule: HTTP, SSL certificate, domain, ping and TCP port.
3. See live status for every monitor on one dashboard.
4. Get an email when something breaks, and another when it recovers.
5. Verify you own a site, then scan it for known vulnerabilities with Nuclei and get findings ranked by risk.
6. Publish a status page so your customers see what is happening, with incidents you write yourself.
7. Send errors from your own software with one Sentry-compatible call; similar events are grouped, with stack traces.
8. Keep versioned PowerShell runbooks: publish, roll back, and download with a hash check. You run them; StatusNow never does.
9. Connect your DNS provider, read-only, and find records that point at something that no longer exists.
10. Turn a finding or an alert into a task with an owner and a date, linked to the evidence.
11. Report uptime against your SLA target, and security findings, as CSV or PDF.

Everything you need to keep a site healthy

Tools that work together, so an alert, a finding, a fix and the task to do it live in the same place.

Monitoring

Watch websites, servers and certificates, and hear about problems first.

• Uptime, HTTP status codes, ping and TCP port checks
• SSL certificate and domain expiry warnings
• Read a /health endpoint and name the failing dependency
• Push monitors for jobs and apps behind a firewall
• Run history, outage windows, tags and notes for each monitor
• Alerts to email, Slack and webhooks

Vulnerability scanning

Scan the sites you own for known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

• Ownership is verified before anything is scanned
• On demand or on a schedule, with alerts on new findings
• Actively exploited issues (CISA KEV) are ranked first
• A grouped fix plan instead of a flat list
• Check a named CVE on demand

Runbooks

Versioned PowerShell scripts and baselines for setting up servers.

• Draft, publish and roll back with full history
• Hash-checked downloads
• You review and run them; we never execute anything

Status pages

Tell your customers what's happening, without exposing your setup.

• Pick the monitors to show, with 90-day uptime
• Incidents, maintenance windows and RSS
• Email subscribers and Slack digests, if you want them
• Monitor names and addresses stay private

Application logs

Send errors and events from your own software and search them.

• Sentry-compatible ingest with one HTTP call
• Similar events grouped, with stack traces
• An audit log of who changed what

DNS hygiene

Find DNS records that point at something that no longer exists.

• Connect Route 53, Azure DNS, GoDaddy or Sitelutions, or upload a zone file
• Dead delegations and dangling CNAMEs, with severity
• Read-only: nothing is changed at your provider
• Only confirmed problems are reported

Tasks

Owned, dated work that stays linked to what caused it.

• Assignees, watchers, due dates and discussion
• Create one from a finding or an alert
• Link monitors, scan targets, runbooks and baselines
• Reminders and a daily digest by email, if you want them

Reports

Uptime and security figures you can hand to someone else.

• Uptime, downtime, outages and MTTR per monitor, with SLA targets
• Vulnerability and runbook reports; a site never scanned is flagged, not shown as clean
• CSV and PDF, and a monthly email if you want one

Ask an AI about your monitoring

StatusNow has an MCP server, so Claude Code and other MCP clients can look at your monitors, alerts, scans, DNS findings, tasks and logs and help you act on them. You can also ask questions in a chat panel inside StatusNow.

Connect in a minute

Add the server by URL and sign in, or use an API key.

• One endpoint: https://statusnow.dev/mcp
• Sign in with your StatusNow account through OAuth
• Access follows your role and your account only
• Included on the free plan

Careful by design

Your AI can help, but it cannot change much.

• Read monitors, alerts, scan findings, DNS findings, tasks, logs and status pages
• Pause or resume a monitor, acknowledge or close an alert
• Create and update tasks, and comment on them
• Runbooks and baselines are saved as drafts only; you publish them
• Nothing is ever run on your servers

Built-in assistant

Ask a question in plain words and get an answer from your own data.

• Bring your own Claude or Gemini key; you pay your provider directly
• Read-only: it can look, it cannot change anything
• Follows each person's role, and your account only

Start free. Add capacity when you need it.

No plans and no per-seat fees. Every account gets every feature; you pay for more room and faster checks.

Free

Everything included, forever

$0 / month

• 10 monitors
• 10 vulnerability scan targets
• 1 published status page
• Runbooks, tasks, DNS hygiene, reports and application logs
• Unlimited users
• Checks every 15 minutes
• Email, Slack and webhook alerts
• API and MCP access

Monitor Pack

More monitors

$10 / month per pack

• +10 monitors per pack
• Any paid account can check as often as every minute
• Add as many packs as you need

Scan Target Pack

More websites to scan

$25 / month per pack

• +10 scan targets per pack

Status Page Pack

More published status pages

$5 / month per pack

• +5 published pages per pack
• The first page is always free

Example: 30 monitors, 20 scan targets and 6 status pages is 2 monitor packs ($20) + 1 scan pack ($25) + 1 status page pack ($5) = $50 / month. Packs are charged straight away for the rest of the month, and you can reduce or cancel any time.

Questions

Is the free account really free?

Yes. Every account includes 10 monitors, 10 scan targets, one published status page and unlimited users, with every feature switched on. No credit card is needed.

Can I scan any website?

Only sites you own. Before a scan can run you prove ownership of the host with a DNS record or a file on the site. Scans are limited to known vulnerabilities and never run destructive tests.

How often are my monitors checked?

Free accounts are checked every 15 minutes. An account with any paid pack can choose its own schedule, as often as every minute.

Does DNS hygiene change my DNS?

No. It reads your zones with a read-only credential, or from an uploaded zone file, and lists records that point at something that no longer exists. A lookup that is unclear is never reported as a problem.

Can the assistant change anything?

No. It only reads, and only what the person asking is allowed to see. You supply your own Claude or Gemini key, so questions go to that provider under your own account.

Does StatusNow run my runbooks?

No. It stores, versions and checks them. A person downloads a published version, verifies its hash, reads it and runs it on their own server.

Can I add or remove capacity later?

Yes. Add packs at any time and you're charged straight away for the rest of the billing period. Remove packs whenever your usage fits the smaller size; removed packs stop at once, without a credit.
