Uptime monitoring that checks twice before it wakes you
Most monitors page you the moment one request fails. Pingbird runs two independent probes and only calls an app down when both agree — so a dropped packet stays a footnote instead of a 3am phone call.
No credit card. Email alerts included.
Why two probes
A single checker cannot tell "the app is down" apart from "my own network hiccuped". That is where false alarms come from, and false alarms are how teams learn to ignore alerts.
Agreement before alarm
Every probe records its own observation. An incident opens only when each one that reported agrees the app is unreachable. Disagreement waits for the next round.
Retry before verdict
A failed request is retried once inside the probe. A real outage fails both attempts; a dropped DNS packet, which fails in milliseconds, does not.
Mute for deploys
Silence a monitor for 30 minutes while you ship. Checks and uptime history keep running, so your numbers stay honest — only the email is held.
TLS expiry, watched
Certificates are read on a schedule and counted down on the dashboard, so a renewal that quietly stopped working is visible weeks before it bites.
Public status pages
Flip a switch and a monitor gets a shareable page with 30 days of uptime and its incident history. No account needed to read it.
Honest history
Uptime is computed from every recorded observation, not from a rolled-up counter — so what the chart says is what the probes actually saw.
