Entidex started as a personal frustration and became a tool built to give developers and teams the kind of monitoring signal they can actually trust.
The origin
It started with a late-night Slack message: "Is the API down for anyone else?" — sent by a user, not an alert. By the time I saw it, the service had been down for 22 minutes.
We had monitoring set up. It just wasn't good enough. A single region, no keyword validation, alerts that cried wolf too often. The tool we were using was either too noisy or too slow. I started looking for something better and couldn't find exactly what I needed.
So I built it. First as a weekend script, then as something more serious. The idea was simple: before you alert someone, make sure the problem is real. Check from multiple places. Confirm. Then fire.
That's still the core idea behind Entidex today.
Why Entidex
Most monitoring tools were designed for enterprise teams with dedicated ops engineers. They're either too complex, too expensive, or built around assumptions that don't match how indie devs and small teams actually work.
The result? Teams that ignore their alerts because there are too many. Or teams that find out about downtime from users. Neither is acceptable.
Entidex is built around one belief: every alert should mean something. Multi-region consensus means you only get notified when something is actually wrong — confirmed from multiple locations, not just one.
And when something is wrong, you get the full picture: which regions failed, what the error was, how long it's been happening. Not just "your site is down."
Mission & values
A few principles that guide every decision — from how we build features to how we communicate incidents.
Every alert must be real. We'd rather miss one false positive than train you to ignore your alerts.
We run our own status page on Entidex. When something breaks, we say so — clearly and quickly.
Powerful features shouldn't require a manual. You should be monitoring in under two minutes.
Indie devs, small teams, side projects. The people who care deeply about their products but don't have an ops team.
