I'm building a $15/mo status page would you actually pay for it?

Hey IH,

Every founder learns this lesson the hard way.

45-minute outage. No status page.
60 support tickets: "is it just me?"

Statuspage by Atlassian = $299/mo.
That's more than my entire infra combined.

So I'm building StatusEmbed.

What it does:
status.yourapp.com in 5 minutes
→ Automatic incident detection (no false positives)
→ Email alerts to your subscribers
→ 90-day uptime history
→ Embeddable widget — one script tag

What it doesn't do:
→ No enterprise bloat
→ No $299/mo invoice

Pricing: $15/month.

Launching March 17th.

One honest question before I go live:
Would you actually pay $15/month for this?

Not "sounds cool" — would you pull out your card?

P.S. Do you have a status page right now?
How did you solve it?
