Show HN: Monitor any website, discuss outages, and post verified owner updates

[joseph2024]

Hi,

I built anysite.live, a website monitoring service where anyone can add a site, check its status, and discuss outages in the comments. Verified site owners can also post official updates.

Just enter a URL, and anysite.live will check the site every minute.

I built this because some of the online communities I regularly use occasionally go down. Most status pages can only be created by site owners, but I wanted a place where anyone could register a site and talk with other users when something went wrong.

Current features:

Website status checks every minute p50, p90, and p99 latency metrics Comments for discussing incidents

For site owners:

Ownership verification via DNS or URL Official status announcements after verification

I’d love to hear your feedback. Thank you.

i see blocked status for my website, which is expected, because aws waf meet any suspicious(datacenter or non regular ua) with a captcha challenge. How to properly add you bot to exceptions? could you provide a list of ip publicly maybe, just an idea

[joseph2024]

The IP address is can be change. The User-agent for prober is `anysite-live-bot/1.0 (+https://anysite.live)`.
