The Verdict
OnlineOrNot stands out as an indie hacker tool built by an indie hacker (founder prioritizes responding to support emails personally). 30-second monitoring intervals from six global regions catch real outages, not network blips. The platform's multi-location verification reduces false alarms—a critical advantage for indie founders who can't afford distraction from notification fatigue.\n\nPricing is transparent and usage-based ($2 per check), making it predictable for growing projects. Supports REST/GraphQL APIs with assertion validation, so you catch breaking changes before users do. Team features and status pages work at all tiers. Unlike Pingdom's enterprise-focused approach, OnlineOrNot speaks indie hacker language: no sales calls, no contracts, no VC-pivot risk.
