Monitor Everything. Miss Nothing.

Proactive checks from every corner of the globe ensure you're the first to know when something breaks — not your users.

Multi-Step Checks

Chain multiple HTTP requests or browser interactions into a single test. Validate login flows, shopping carts, and complex user journeys.

API Monitoring

Test REST and GraphQL endpoints with custom headers, authentication, request bodies, and response assertions.

SSL Certificate Monitoring

Get notified 30, 14, and 7 days before any certificate expires. Monitor certificate transparency logs for unauthorized issuance.

Global Locations

30+ probe locations across 6 continents. Run checks from the regions that matter most to your users.

SLA Reporting

Automated SLA reports with uptime percentages, downtime incident history, and MTTD/MTTR metrics for every check.

Playwright Integration

Write checks using Playwright — the same browser automation your developers already know. Full TypeScript support.

Alert When Checks Fail

Drop-in integrations with the tools your team already uses.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a browser check and an API check?

An API check sends HTTP or HTTPS requests directly and validates response status codes, headers, response time, and body content using assertions. A browser check uses a real Chromium browser to load your page or run a Playwright script, capturing screenshots, rendering performance, and the full user-visible experience including JavaScript execution — not just server response.

How do I write a multi-step Playwright check?

You write standard Playwright TypeScript in the TigerOps check editor or push scripts from your own repository via the API. The check runner executes your script in a real browser at the configured interval and location. You have access to the full Playwright API including page interactions, network interception, and screenshot assertions — the same code your developers write for end-to-end testing.

How quickly will I be alerted when a check fails?

When a check fails from any location, TigerOps immediately retries from a second location to confirm the failure is not a transient network issue. If the retry also fails, an alert is sent within 60 seconds of the first failure. This two-probe confirmation approach eliminates false alarms from single-location blips while keeping alert time well under one minute.

Can synthetic checks run on a schedule aligned to my deployment pipeline?

Yes. You can trigger synthetic checks on-demand via the TigerOps API, making it straightforward to run your browser checks as a post-deployment smoke test in your CI/CD pipeline. If the checks fail, your pipeline can block the deployment from promoting to the next environment. The GitHub Actions and Terraform integrations provide pre-built examples.

How does SSL certificate monitoring work?

TigerOps checks your SSL certificates daily from multiple locations and alerts you at 30, 14, and 7 days before expiry by default — all thresholds are configurable. It also monitors certificate transparency logs to alert you if a new certificate is issued for your domain from an unexpected certificate authority, which is an early indicator of a potential security incident.
