Uptime Monitoring
Know the moment your site goes down — before your customers do. Get alerts, track response times, and manage incidents in one place.
Everything you need to stay up
Flexible check intervals
From 30-second checks for critical services to hourly checks for less critical endpoints. Match the interval to your needs and budget.
Multi-channel alerts
Get notified via Slack, email, SMS, or webhooks. Set up escalation policies so the right person gets paged at the right time.
Response time tracking
Track response times over time. Spot performance degradation before it becomes downtime. Set thresholds for slow response alerts.
Incident management
When something breaks, cmdline creates an incident automatically. Track resolution, add notes, and generate postmortems — all in one place.
Slack-native alerting
Not just notifications — full incident management from Slack. Acknowledge, mute, or resolve incidents without leaving your workspace.
