The public status page you own forever.
Developers rent API docs, monitoring, secrets and webhook plumbing by the month for side projects that earn nothing yet. Self-hosted pay-once utilities cost less than one month of the SaaS they replace.
The tool this job usually means renting is Statuspage.io, at $29+/mo — roughly $348 a year, every year. Upkeep Status does the job for a one-time $29 — running on infrastructure you control.
Operational, degraded, partial or major outage and maintenance — toggle manually or auto-flip from your uptime monitor via a per-component webhook.
For developers, components with five states pays off while you're shipping, not managing vendor accounts — and it's covered by the same one-time $29, not metered per month.
The classic investigating → identified → monitoring → resolved flow, every update timestamped on the public page.
For developers, incident timelines pays off while you're shipping, not managing vendor accounts — and it's covered by the same one-time $29, not metered per month.
Windows shown in advance that auto-transition scheduled → in progress → complete, with no cron required.
For developers, scheduled maintenance pays off while you're shipping, not managing vendor accounts — and it's covered by the same one-time $29, not metered per month.
One payment of $29 gets you the packaged installer, or clone the MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/status-page-mvp and run it yourself for free.
Docker-compose onto a $5 VPS, point any domain at it via your reverse proxy, and set your admin password.
List your services, wire each component's webhook to your uptime monitor, and your public page updates itself.
