True 1-second monitoring

Know the exact second your service went down.

PingInsight watches your sites and APIs with real 1-second checks and exact-second outage timelines — then broadcasts status to the world on fast, beautiful status pages. Everything Instatus does, plus the granularity it can't match.

How it works

From zero to second-by-second monitoring in three steps.

  1. 1

    Create a monitor

    Add a URL, host, port, DNS record, certificate, or inbound heartbeat. Choose from 14 check types and set assertions on status, body, JSON, headers, or latency.

  2. 2

    We check every second from 3 regions

    Probes in Ohio, Oregon, and Ireland test on your interval — as fast as one second — and confirm a real outage by quorum (2 of 3 agree) before alerting.

  3. 3

    Get alerted + a live status page

    Route incidents to 11 channels — email, Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, and more — and broadcast status to a fast, branded status page with exact-second timelines.

Multi-location quorum across 3 regionsUS-EastUS-WestEU-WestDOWN confirmed2 of 3 regions agree
Step 2: an outage is declared only when at least 2 of the 3 probe regions agree — the quorum that keeps single-region blips from paging you.
The granularity moat

A 30-second blind spot is a 30-second lie.

Most monitors poll every 30–60 seconds, so a 4-second outage simply never happened. PingInsight checks every second and timestamps to the millisecond — you see exactly what your users saw.
