Quickstart

Get your first uptime monitor running in under five minutes.

1. Sign Up

Create an account at app.kamustatus.com using your email and password. You can also sign in later at the same URL.

2. Create a Project

Projects group related monitors together. After signing in, click New Project and give it a name (e.g. "Production" or "My SaaS").

Each project gets its own API key (prefixed km_...) that you can use for programmatic access.

3. Add Your First Monitor

  1. Open your project and click New Monitor.
  2. Choose a monitor type -- HTTP is the most common starting point.
  3. Enter the URL you want to monitor (e.g. https://example.com).
  4. Configure the check interval and regions.
  5. Click Create.

Kamustatus will immediately run the first check. Within seconds you will see results on the monitor dashboard.

4. Set Up Alerts

Go to Alerts in your project and create a notification channel (e.g. Slack or email). Then create an alert rule that triggers when a monitor goes down.

5. Create a Status Page (Optional)

Under Status Pages, create a public page and add your monitors. Share the URL with your users so they can see real-time uptime status.

Your status page will be available at https://app.kamustatus.com/status/<slug>.
