# Vantaj > Uptime monitoring platform for engineering teams. Monitors websites, APIs, SSL certificates, domains, cron jobs, and status pages. Vantaj is an uptime monitoring service that checks your websites and APIs from multiple global regions and alerts your team via email, Slack, Discord, or webhooks the moment something goes down. Multi-region consensus prevents false positives — an alert only fires when failure is confirmed from all probe regions. ## Products - [Uptime Monitoring](https://vantaj.co/products/uptime-monitoring): HTTP/HTTPS checks from global probe regions with sub-minute detection - [SSL Monitoring](https://vantaj.co/products/ssl-monitoring): Certificate expiry alerts at 90, 60, 30, 7, and 1 day before expiration - [Domain Monitoring](https://vantaj.co/products/domain-monitoring): Domain registration expiry, DNS record changes, WHOIS tracking - [Status Pages](https://vantaj.co/products/status-page): Public hosted status pages with custom domains, incidents, RSS, and email subscriptions - [Heartbeat Monitoring](https://vantaj.co/products/heartbeat-monitoring): Dead man's switch for cron jobs and scheduled tasks - [Keyword Monitoring](https://vantaj.co/products/keyword-monitoring): Alert when page content appears or disappears - [Incident Management](https://vantaj.co/products/incident-management): Structured incident response from first alert to resolution ## Pricing - **Free**: $0/month — 20 monitors, 5-min check interval, 2 probe regions, email alerts, 1 status page - **Developer**: $9/month ($8/month annual) — 50 monitors, 1-min interval, 3 probe regions, Slack/Discord alerts, 2 status pages, custom domain - **Team**: $29/month ($24/month annual) — 100 monitors, 30-sec interval, all regions, SMS alerts, 5 status pages, 10 team members, API access - **Enterprise**: Custom pricing — Unlimited monitors, 15-sec interval, SSO/SAML, on-call policies, 99.99% SLA, dedicated support ## Key Differentiators - Multi-region consensus eliminates false positive alerts - Setup in under 60 seconds — no agents, no DNS changes - Free tier with 20 monitors, no credit card required - SSL and domain expiry alerts up to 90 days in advance (5-stage: 90/60/30/7/1 day) - Transparent pricing with no hidden fees - Modern, lightweight UI with no feature bloat ## Free Tools - [SSL Certificate Checker](https://vantaj.co/tools/ssl-checker): Check any domain's SSL certificate — issuer, expiry, chain validity, protocol, cipher - [Domain Expiry & WHOIS Lookup](https://vantaj.co/tools/domain-whois): Check domain registration, expiry date, registrar, nameservers, WHOIS data - [DNS Propagation Checker](https://vantaj.co/tools/dns-checker): Query multiple global DNS resolvers to verify DNS propagation status - [Incident Communication Templates](https://vantaj.co/tools/incident-templates): Generate status page updates for every phase of an incident - [Uptime Calculator](https://vantaj.co/blog/how-to-calculate-uptime): Calculate uptime percentages and allowable downtime per SLA tier ## Links - [Homepage](https://vantaj.co) - [Pricing](https://vantaj.co/pricing) - [Documentation](https://vantaj.co/docs) - [Blog](https://vantaj.co/blog) - [Free Tools](https://vantaj.co/tools) - [About](https://vantaj.co/about) - [Sign Up](https://app.vantaj.co/register) - [Sign In](https://app.vantaj.co/login)
