About

Most monitors just send an HTTP ping. But a 200 OK is useless if the JSON-RPC handshake fails. Our tool is different because it performs a true protocol-level check, acting exactly like a real AI client. Key features: Full Handshake: Executes the spec-defined initialize, ping, and tools/list sequence. Deep Visibility: Inspect exact JSON-RPC payloads and negotiated versions. Smart Auth: Parses RFC 9728 headers on 401s to surface exact token requirements.

Use Cases

  • Teams needing to notify customers during service incidents automatically
  • Companies preparing for SOC 2 audits with compliance documentation
  • Support teams looking to reduce customer support tickets

Pricing

Free plan available with one monitor and one status page. Paid plans start at $30/month (Starter), $100/month (Pro), and $500/month (Scale). No credit card required to start.

FAQ

What is openstatus?

Openstatus is an open-source status page and incident response platform. Monitor from 28 regions, publish a branded status page on your own domain, and manage it from Slack, an AI agent, the dashboard, CLI, API or Terraform. It is used by teams like Cal.com, WhiteBIT, and Documenso, and can be self-hosted.

What does the free plan include?

The free Hobby plan includes one monitor, one status page with three page components, and a minimum check interval of 10 minutes. No credit card is required, and you can upgrade or cancel at any time.

Do I need a status page for SOC 2?

SOC 2's CC2.3 criteria asks you to demonstrate incident communication with external parties. A public status page with timestamped, audited incident history is the shortest answer. Every status report on openstatus is timestamped and documented automatically, and every mutation is written to the audit log.

Can I self-host openstatus?

Yes. Openstatus is AGPL-3.0 and can be self-hosted with Docker. You can also keep the hosted version and run private monitoring locations behind your firewall for internal services. The source code is on GitHub.

Who is behind openstatus?

Openstatus is built by Thibault and Max, a bootstrapped two-person team building in public. We're profitable and self-funded, and we'll be here when your next audit comes around.

What billing options are available?

All paid plans are available with monthly or annual billing. Choose annual billing to get 2 months free — Starter at $300/year ($25/mo), Pro at $1,000/year (~$83/mo), and Scale at $5,000/year (~$416/mo).

Can I switch between monthly and annual billing?

Yes. You can switch between monthly and annual billing at any time from your dashboard.

Do you offer a free plan?

Yes. Our free Hobby plan includes one monitor, one status page with three components, and a minimum check interval of 10 minutes. No credit card required.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. New workspaces start with a 14-day trial of the Starter plan, no credit card required. If you have not added a card by then, the workspace returns to the free Hobby plan.

What are add-ons and how are they billed?

Add-ons are workspace-level settings like White Label, Custom Theme, Email Authentication, IP Restriction, extra status pages, and extra monitors. Once enabled, they apply to your entire workspace. Add-ons are billed monthly regardless of your plan's billing cycle.
