What you get for $0/month

25 monitors

Monitor 25 websites, APIs, or endpoints. Enough for most small businesses and side projects.

3-minute check intervals

We check your sites every 3 minutes, 24/7. That's 480 checks per day per monitor.

Email alerts

Get notified instantly when something goes down. And again when it comes back up.

SSL monitoring

We watch your SSL certificates and alert you before they expire. No surprises.

Status page

A public status page you can share with your users. Shows real-time status for each service.

Keyword monitoring

Check if your page contains (or doesn't contain) specific text. Catch content issues early.

Response time tracking

See how fast your sites respond over time. Spot performance issues before they become outages.

Commercial use allowed

Use it for your business, your clients, your SaaS. We don't restrict free plans by use case.

How it works

1

Add your URLs

Paste in your website URLs. One at a time or bulk import a whole list. Each takes about 5 seconds.

2

We start checking

Every 3 minutes, we send an HTTP request to your URL. We check the status code, response time, and optionally the page content.

3

You get alerted

If something's wrong — wrong status code, missing keyword, timeout — you get an email within minutes. We also confirm downtime with multiple checks to avoid false alarms.

Frequently asked questions

Is there really no catch?

No catch. The free plan is subsidized by our paid plans ($5/mo and $15/mo). We make money from users who need more monitors or faster check intervals. The free plan is good enough for many people, and that's fine.

How is this different from UptimeRobot's free plan?

UptimeRobot's free plan is restricted to non-commercial, personal use only (since November 2024). OpenPing's free plan works for any purpose — business, personal, client work, whatever.

Will the free plan always be free?

Yes. We won't retroactively restrict what you can do with it. Our unit economics support it — each free user costs us about $0.10/month to serve.

What if I need more than 25 monitors?

Upgrade to Pro ($5/month) for 50 monitors with 1-minute intervals, or Business ($15/month) for 200 monitors with 30-second intervals.

Do you sell my data?

No. We don't run ads. We don't sell data. We make money from paid subscriptions. That's it.

25 monitors. Zero dollars. Zero excuses.

Your sites deserve monitoring. Set it up in 30 seconds.
