  "price": "Free: 10 monitors and heartbeats, 1 status page, 3GB logs and 3GB traces at 3-day retention, 30GB metrics. Paid from $25/mo annual for 50 extra monitors or the Nano telemetry bundle.",
  "tier": "mixed",
  "pick": false,
  "what": "A combined uptime monitoring, status page, incident management and log platform. The free tier covers ten HTTP or heartbeat monitors, a hosted status page and Slack plus email alerts, along with a small telemetry allowance. Paid bundles raise log, trace and metric volume and extend retention to 30 days.",
  "why": "It collapses three separate free tiers, uptime pings, a public status page and cron heartbeats, into one account, and ten free monitors covers a solo builder's whole portfolio.",
  "warn": "Free log and trace retention is only three days and free checks run at three-minute intervals. Phone and SMS alerting, 30-second checks and longer retention all require a paid plan.",
