Start free with 15 monitors. Add probe locations, channels, and check frequency as the things you care about grow. No seats, no overage charges, no surprise bills.
Every plan runs on the same probe network, the same database, the same alert engine. The differences are quantitative — more monitors, faster checks, more probe locations — not feature-gated UX nags.
The full matrix. If a row is blank for your plan, that capability either isn't included or runs in a reduced form documented on the docs site.

Four questions we get every week from people about to swipe a card.
Yes. Paid plans are month-to-month and cancellation is two clicks in the Stripe customer portal. You keep the paid tier until the end of the current billing period, then drop to Free — your monitors stay configured, the ones above the Free cap just pause.
All major credit and debit cards via Stripe, plus Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Link. Enterprise customers can pay by ACH or wire on a 30-day net invoice. No crypto, no PayPal.
Nothing breaks and we never auto-charge overages. New monitors above your cap get created in a paused state with a banner explaining the limit. Extra probe locations are visible in the UI but skipped until you upgrade. You decide when to spend more.
Yes — pay annually and get 3 months free (effectively 25% off). Available on Starter ($45/yr) and Premium ($171/yr) from the Stripe portal. Enterprise contracts are annual by default and priced separately.
15 monitors, single-location checks, email alerts. No credit card, no trial countdown. Upgrade if and when you outgrow it.
