Uptime site

Key features
- Checks added URLs roughly every 5 minutes
- Alerts on both downtime and recovery
- No external dashboard — everything happens in chat
Uptime site
Uptime site is a straightforward, no-frills monitoring bot: add a URL, and it polls that address roughly every five minutes, notifying you in the chat the moment a check fails and again once the site is reachable again. There is no external dashboard, no separate sign-up flow and no paid tier to upsell — everything happens inside the Telegram conversation itself.
That simplicity is both the appeal and the limit. For a single personal site, a blog, or a small side project, it removes the friction of creating an account on a monitoring platform just to get a down alert — you add the URL and you are covered. It does not offer SSL or domain-expiry checks, multi-region checks, or status pages, so anyone monitoring production infrastructure for a business is better served by a dedicated service with team alerting and an SLA.
Because it is a small independently run bot rather than a company product, treat it as a convenient personal safety net rather than a monitoring platform you would put a client's uptime guarantee behind.
