I’m building a monitoring tool for makers & agencies, looking for feedback on positioning
Hey IH! 👋
I’m Luke, a long-time developer and indie maker.
After 20+ years building websites and SaaS (and an exit in my 40s), I’ve always struggled with the same thing: monitoring tools that feel over-engineered for what most of us actually need.
I’m now building PerkyDash, an uptime & performance monitoring platform designed for:
indie makers
freelancers
small agencies managing client websites
small SaaS teams
Not a “simplified tool”, but a better fit: powerful, modern monitoring without the noise, jargon, or enterprise-style friction.
Core features so far:
• Uptime checks (HTTP/HTTPS)
• Response time monitoring
• Multi-region checks
• SSL certificate expiry monitoring
• Status pages (public/private)
• Instant alerts (email, Slack, webhook)
• Check scheduling & flexible frequencies
• Incident summaries
• Auto-detection of outages & anomalies
• Clean reporting for clients
I'm currently preparing the beta launch and polishing the value proposition.
Before pushing it out, I’d love to hear from this community:
👉 If you manage multiple sites or run a SaaS, what’s the biggest pain you have with monitoring tools today?
Notifications? Too complex? Pricing? Too noisy? Hard to set up for clients?
Any feedback is gold.
I'm also opening a small beta soon.
If anyone here wants to try it early or follow the progress, there's a waiting list:
Totally optional, feedback is already super helpful.
Thanks IH!
