Built by people who've been paged at 3am.
Upclock exists because every uptime tool we tried either drowned us in noise, charged absurd money for basic features, or both.
We started this because we kept ending up in the same spot at every company we worked at: a Slack channel full of muted alerts, a status page nobody trusts, and a billing line item that nobody can quite justify. The tools claimed to monitor uptime but spent most of their effort trying to upsell APM, RUM, and a dozen other acronyms.
Upclock is the opposite of that. It does one thing — verifies that your endpoints are reachable from the public internet — and tries to do it well enough that you can forget it's there until it pages you.
We're building Upclock independently and self-funded. There's no sales motion, no contract minimums, and no roadmap dictated by an enterprise pilot. The roadmap is shaped by developers who pay us $29 a month, and that's by design.
What we believe
Low noise beats high coverage
An alert you ignore is worse than no alert. We'd rather miss a 30-second blip than burn out your on-call.
Developer-first, always
If a feature requires a sales call to enable, it doesn't ship. The pricing page is the pricing.
Honest pricing
Three plans, no per-seat penalty, no "contact us for pricing" tier hiding the real cost.
What we don't do
- ✕No agents. We don't want a process running on your servers. External monitoring only.
- ✕No log ingestion. Your logs are yours. We don't want them, store them, or charge you per GB.
- ✕No tracing or APM. Plenty of excellent tools do that. We're not trying to be one of them.
- ✕No usage-based surprises. Plan price is the price. Hit your monitor cap and we'll just stop you from adding more, not bill you for it.
Try it for a weekend.
Hobby is free, no card. If it's not noticeably less annoying than your current tool, we'd like to hear why.
