About Tell Me When Down
Tell Me When Down is an uptime monitoring and security scanning tool specifically designed for solo founders and developers building with AI agents. Rather than just checking if a URL responds, it monitors your application across three distinct operational depths to ensure both availability and safety.
The platform inspects your project through three layers:
- Public URL Scan: A free security scan evaluating your public domain for SSL issues, response headers, DNS configuration, and domain spoofing risks.
- GitHub Code Scan: A read-only GitHub App that analyzes your codebase to detect known vulnerabilities (CVEs) and leaked secrets.
- SDK Integration: Deep monitoring for critical backend components, including databases, Stripe webhooks, and background cron jobs.
With 60-second uptime checks and plain-English alerts, Tell Me When Down simplifies maintenance. Instead of requiring deep security expertise, every issue detected comes with a pre-formatted fix. Users can simply click "Copy for your AI tool" to feed the precise resolution directly into the AI coding agent used to build the application.
