Get notified before outages become official incidents

We've just launched one of our biggest feature updates yet - Early Outage Detection. This fundamentally changes how IsDown works, transforming it from a reactive monitoring tool into a proactive early warning system.

What's New?

Early Warning Notifications
Instead of waiting for services to confirm outages on their status pages officially, IsDown now detects early warning signs and alerts you immediately. This gives you a critical head start - often hours before official confirmations.

🎯 Granular Control

• Bulk enable/disable across all your monitored services with one click.

• Individual service-level control in your severity filtering settings

📢 Complete Notification Coverage
We're releasing this feature across multiple notification channels:

• Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Email and SMS

• Next: Datadog, PagerDuty, Rootly, Incident.io and all the others.

Why This Matters

Before: You learned about outages when everyone else did - after services posted official incidents.

Now: You get alerted the moment IsDown detects anomalies, giving your team precious time to:

• Investigate potential issues before they impact customers

• Prepare customer support responses proactively

• Get ahead of the incident curve instead of reacting to it

The Bottom Line

This isn't just a feature addition - it's a paradigm shift. IsDown now competes with enterprise monitoring platforms for early detection capabilities while maintaining its unique advantage of monitoring 4,400+ third-party services in one place.

Available now for all users. Enable early warnings in your profile settings or per-service in your notification preferences.
