## Check the whole flow, not just the home page
A ping says the server answered. A browser check says a real user could actually log in and check out, with a screenshot of every step.
- ### Your Playwright scripts
Log in, add to cart, check out — the flows pings can’t see. No new DSL.
- ### A screenshot per step
When a step breaks, you see exactly where, with a stepped replay.
- ### Visual regression
Each run is diffed against a baseline; a layout shift drops the score and alerts you.

## Only confirmed outages page you
Most monitors alert on the first failed check. Uptrack requires consecutive failures. Paid plans check your site from 12 or 22 locations on six continents and alert only when several locations confirm it is down. The free plan checks from Nuremberg and still waits for consecutive failures.
Your CDN edge in Frankfurt goes down and your server is fine. Uptrack checks from 22 locations on six continents and alerts only when several of them confirm the failure.

## Why 30 seconds matters
Most free plans elsewhere check every 5 minutes. Your site could be down for 4 minutes and 59 seconds before you know. Uptrack checks every 30 seconds on every plan, including free, and paid plans start at $3/mo.
Worst-case time before a check notices an outage.
- 5-minute checks · Most other free plans4:59
- 1-minute checks · Best paid plans, usually $10+/mo0:59
- 30-second checks · Uptrack, every plan and monitor0:29
10x faster than the average free plan elsewhere. That is the difference between catching an outage during checkout and losing a customer.
