Post-deploy checklist

You deployed the app. Now monitor the 5 things that break first.

Holter gives new apps a simple production checklist: uptime, API health, SSL, DNS/domain, and the background jobs users never see. Set them up by hand or let your coding agent propose them.

No credit card · free plan · up and watching in minutes.

The problem

Your app is live — and now what? Most newly deployed apps ship with zero monitoring. The homepage 500s at 2am, the SSL cert quietly expires, a cron stops running, and you find out from a user's DM. The hard part is not the tools; it is knowing what to watch first.

Set up in three steps

01

Add the first five

Start with the basics: your homepage or /health endpoint, your API, your SSL cert, your domain/DNS, and one background job.

02

Point alerts somewhere you'll see

Route alerts to email, Slack, Discord, or a webhook so a failure reaches you — not just a log nobody reads.

03

Add the rest as you grow

Publish a status page, watch a third-party dependency, or add global checks when you actually need them.

What Holter does

Holter turns "what do I monitor?" into a short checklist. The five things every deployed app should watch — is the site up, is the API healthy, is SSL valid, does DNS resolve, did the background jobs run — set up in a few clicks, or proposed by your coding agent. No observability stack to learn.

  • ✓ Uptime — is your homepage or /health actually responding
  • ✓ API health — status, body, and response time on your endpoints
  • ✓ SSL & domain — warned days before a cert or domain expires
  • ✓ DNS — know the moment your domain stops resolving
  • ✓ Backups & crons — a heartbeat that alerts when a job stops running

Questions, answered

Start with five: your homepage or health endpoint, your API, your SSL certificate, your DNS/domain, and one critical background job. Holter sets each up in a few clicks.

No. Holter checks your app from the outside, and your jobs send a heartbeat for the parts it cannot see. Nothing runs on your servers.

Yes. Connect Holter's MCP server and Claude Code or Cursor reads your repo locally and proposes the monitors — you approve them. Holter never sees your source.

No. Free covers up to 5 monitors — enough for the whole starter checklist — with no card.
