help Instatus FAQ
What does Instatus monitor?
Instatus is mainly a hosted status-page service for communicating service health and incidents to users. It can show uptime and component status, but it is not primarily a Lighthouse-style page-speed analyzer for FCP, LCP, or Time to Interactive.
Can Instatus create a public status page?
Yes. Teams can use Instatus to publish a branded public status page with service components, incident updates, and maintenance notices. The page is intended to reduce support questions during outages by showing the current state openly.
Does Instatus replace synthetic website monitoring?
No. A status page tells customers what the team reports about service health, while synthetic monitoring actively checks endpoints or workflows. Tools such as Better Uptime, Pingdom, or Checkly are closer substitutes for automated performance and availability checks.
Who is Instatus designed for?
It is aimed at software teams, agencies, and online services that need a simple customer-facing status page. The useful starting point is usually a small set of components such as API, dashboard, and website rather than detailed browser timing metrics.
