The record

What it does: Pingdan monitors HTTP endpoints on a schedule, checks assertions against each response, and alerts when something fails.
Assertions: Checks can validate status codes, response time, headers, response bodies, and JSON paths.
Charts: It shows response-time bars, uptime timelines, and average, p50, p95, minimum, and maximum latency.
Check intervals: Monitors can run at intervals from 1 minute to 7 days.
Alert integrations: The listed alert channels are email, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, generic webhooks, PagerDuty, ntfy, Pushover, Twilio SMS, and Opsgenie.
Failure thresholds: A monitor changes to down after a configurable number of consecutive failed checks.
SSL monitoring: HTTPS endpoints are included in certificate checks automatically, and expiry warnings begin at 15 days or fewer remaining.
Setup: The maker says setup takes under a minute and requires no agents or configuration files.
Privacy: The privacy page says pingdan does not sell data or use it for advertising, and analytics cookies are set only with consent.
Security: The privacy page says traffic is encrypted with TLS, passwords are hashed with bcrypt, and sessions use signed, expiring tokens.
Notable limitation: The privacy page says there is no self-service account deletion yet; deletion requests go through a person.
Support: The about page directs account and monitor support requests to its support email.
Intended users: The maker describes pingdan as monitoring for engineers who want useful alerts and says it was built by people who had been paged at 3am.
