I’m Rahul, a cloud engineer and indie hacker. I built PulseGuard — an AI-enhanced uptime monitoring tool that’s fast, simple, and affordable.

I made this after getting frustrated with overpriced monitoring tools that were too heavy for simple projects and didn’t offer helpful features like EC2 instance control or intelligent alerts.

Features: Website/API uptime monitoring with alerts

SSL certificate expiry warnings

Server performance tracking

Developer-friendly API

Start/stop your AWS EC2 instances via web UI

Clean and lightweight dashboard

AI-powered alert system to avoid false positives

Pricing: It starts at $0 — with all core features included on the free tier. Paid tiers just expand limits:

1 monitor (Free), up to 25 (Ultra – $8/month)

No credit card needed to start

I’d love your feedback, critiques, feature ideas — or bug reports!
