Know the second your endpoint goes down.
Real HTTP uptime monitoring for developers. Add a URL, pick a status code, get email + Telegram alerts when it stops responding the way you expect. No agents. No bloat.
Your monitors
checked 14s agoTickr fires real HTTP requests against your endpoint and matches the status code you specify. Optional body-substring check catches silent 200-but-broken pages too.
When a probe fails, you get email + Telegram in under a minute on Pro. No PagerDuty contract, no incident rooms — just a clear message with the URL, status, and reason.
Every probe records latency. The dashboard shows 24h and 7d uptime % plus average response time so you spot slow degradation before it becomes a real outage.
Three steps. Done.
Add a URL
Paste the endpoint, set expected status (default 200), pick an interval. Done in 10 seconds.
Tickr probes on schedule
Free: every 15 minutes. Pro: every minute. Each probe records status, latency, and a body preview.
Get alerted instantly
Pro users get email + Telegram pings the moment a probe fails. Free users see the failure on the dashboard.
Uptime monitoring without the SaaS sprawl.
Most tools are either toy ping-checkers or full APM suites with agents and a $200/mo floor. Tickr is the middle: real HTTP probes, real alerts, one-page dashboard. Nothing to install.
Free or $19/mo. That's it.
No contracts. Cancel anytime.

Quick answers.
How is this different from UptimeRobot or Pingdom? +
Same shape, simpler. Tickr does HTTP probes with status + body matching, latency tracking, and email + Telegram alerts. No bloat, no enterprise sales call.
What does a 'probe' actually do? +
It fires an HTTP request against your URL, measures latency, and checks the response status against what you expect. If you set an expected_body_contains string, it also greps the first 200 chars of the response body.
How fast are alerts? +
Pro: probes run every 60 seconds, so a real outage triggers an alert in under a minute. Free probes are every 15 minutes.
Will my server see weird user agents? +
Tickr identifies itself as 'Tickr/1.0 uptime probe' so you can whitelist or filter the requests in your logs.
What if my endpoint requires auth? +
v1 supports unauthenticated GET/POST/HEAD against public URLs. Authenticated probing is on the roadmap.
Can I cancel? +
Anytime. Your monitors stay; new probes pause if you exceed the free cap.
