Hey folks! Shahar and Tal from [Keep](https://www.keephq.dev) here!

For the last few weeks we’ve been building [Peeng.sh](http://Peeng.sh) and can now share our beta with you: https://www.peeng.sh. Peeng is the easiest and quickest “heartbeat” architecture we could think of. Just pick a subdomain (e.g. x.peeng.sh), configure an interval, an endpoint, and a payload, and hit that subdomain every It’s Pingdom/Cronitor/[heartbeat.sh](http://heartbeat.sh) free alternative (but the other way around and A LOT simpler, with a lot more capabilities), suitable for developers, system administrators, DevOps, and individuals with complex networking situations (think “onprem” or K8s clusters with no inbound).

A service in a very similar vein is https://healthchecks.io/ - which also provides a nice perspective on how low-effort the setup for a service with a substantial amount of users can be. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31488910
