Who’s this built for and what is the use case?

This tool wouldn’t be useful for most (if not) all enterprise services I’ve worked for. For enterprise, you want fully featured synthetics services such as Thousand Eyes, plus an internal monitoring and alerting system.

Also you typically don’t want to expose your health endpoint to the outside world. It’s a security risk.

It's aimed at indie devs/startups shipping ideas quick. Built it for ourselves while we were starting an app under the aws free tier which occasionally went down when usage spiked. Notified us to fix it quickly before losing users that could download the app but not create an account. It can be set up in 30 seconds without needing to code anything, so mainly for coders that want a quick and easy solution.

So not aiming for enterprise on this one, made the pricing quite accessible and with minimal features.

For the health endpoint as long as it only returns a 200 status code (without disclosing info like tokens or resource info/server configurations) then the risk is very minimal.
