PingNext monitors your Next.js applications from the outside — exactly like a real user visiting your site. It connects to your Vercel account with one click, auto-discovers all your projects and GET routes, and alerts you on Slack when something goes down.
Unlike error trackers like Sentry which only work when requests reach your code, PingNext detects the failures that happen before your code even runs: DNS outages, Vercel infrastructure problems, SSL certificate expiry, and hosting-level issues. Unlike generic monitoring tools, PingNext understands Vercel deployments and suppresses false alerts during deploys.
Who is it for?
Solo developers and small teams building Next.js applications on Vercel who need reliable uptime monitoring without paying for expensive enterprise tools. Ideal for freelancers shipping client sites, and startups running production apps where downtime means lost revenue.
What problem does it solve?
Three problems that every Next.js developer eventually hits:
1. Blind spots in error tracking. Sentry catches bugs inside your code. But when DNS breaks, Vercel has an outage, or your SSL expires — Sentry receives zero data because no request ever reaches your application. Your users find out before you do.
2. Generic monitoring is tedious. Most of the tools require you to manually add URLs one by one. No Vercel integration. No deployment awareness.
3. Simple Vercel integration. PingNext auto-discovers your project and GET routes.
