The alert went to a dead inbox
A shared mailbox nobody reads is where incidents go to die. When alerts do not reach the on-call engineer, an outage runs for an hour before anyone notices.
IT alerting that reaches the right person
PulseStack watches your infrastructure from multiple locations and routes every incident to the eight channels your teams already use. Automatic re-checks, multi-location confirmation and maintenance windows keep the noise down so real alerts land clean.
Free plan with no card. Failure and recovery alerts included on every tier.

Most teams do not lack monitoring. They lack alerting that reaches the right person, at the right moment, without crying wolf.
A shared mailbox nobody reads is where incidents go to die. When alerts do not reach the on-call engineer, an outage runs for an hour before anyone notices.
A monitor that pages on every transient blip trains your team to ignore it. By the time a real outage lands, the alert is just more noise in a muted channel.
Planned work triggers a wall of failure alerts, on-call scrambles, and then realises it was the migration everyone knew about. Trust in the system erodes fast.
One monitor, one or many channels. Point production databases at your on-call rota and the marketing site at a Slack channel. Nobody gets paged for something that is not theirs.

Alerts land where your people already work. No new tool to check, no dashboard to babysit.
SMS is included on Team and Enterprise and available as an add-on on Starter and Pro. Every other channel is available across paid plans.
Every uptime monitor runs from three regions at once so a single unhealthy node cannot trigger a false alarm.
Every failure is double-checked first: uptime checks must fail from at least two of the three locations, and other monitors are re-tested a few seconds later.
Send the confirmed incident to the exact channels the responsible team lives in. No group inbox guesswork.
A recovery alert fires the moment the service is healthy again, so whoever responded knows it is resolved.
Alerting is only as good as what it watches. PulseStack covers the full surface, from a public URL to a background cron job, with SSL certificate, DNS record and domain expiry monitors as well.
Uptime, status codes and response time for any URL. Custom headers supported.
Confirm a word or phrase is present, or alert when a banned string appears.
A timed TCP connection to a host and port, without sending an HTTP request.
Check a specific service port is open and answering.
Hit an endpoint with your method, headers and body, and check the status code.
Cron and background jobs check in on time, or you get paged when they miss.
One or two engineers covering everything. Route confirmed incidents straight to PagerDuty and SMS so the person on call never misses a page, and let recovery alerts tell them when to stand down.
Dozens of properties across clients. Give each site its own monitor and its own Slack channel, and let automatic re-checks and multi-location confirmation keep noise off the shared inbox.
APIs, jobs and databases behind the product. Heartbeat monitors catch a stalled ETL, port checks catch a down service, and maintenance windows keep deploy nights quiet.

PulseStack includes eight native alert channels: email, SMS, Slack, Telegram, Microsoft Teams, Discord, PagerDuty and webhooks, and Zapier connects through webhooks. SMS alerts are included on the Team and Enterprise plans.
Incidents can be confirmed from multiple locations before an alert is sent, so a single flaky node does not page your team. Maintenance windows let you mute alerts during planned work.
The Starter plan checks every 60 seconds, and Pro, Team and Enterprise check every 30 seconds. The Free plan runs HTTP checks every 5 minutes.
