What is isUpMap?
isUpMap is a free read only status aggregator for developers, operators, and makers who need a quick answer when a service stops behaving. It polls public status pages and HTTP endpoints, then shows whether 97+ services are up, degraded, down, or unknown in a live heatmap with service pages and recent incidents. The directory covers AI, developer and cloud, payments, communication, productivity and media, and gaming services, with automated checks about every 5 minutes.
Why isUpMap works
Provider status pages are useful after you already know which provider to check. The painful failure is a stack that depends on OpenAI, GitHub, Stripe, Cloudflare, and Slack, where the break could sit anywhere. isUpMap puts public status signals and automated probes into one heatmap, so the user scans the dependency map instead of opening provider pages one by one.
isUpMap features
- Live status heatmap. The main dashboard shows services as up, reported, degraded, down, or unknown, with a problems only filter for faster triage.
- 97+ service directory. The status directory groups monitored services across developer and cloud, AI, payments, communication, productivity and media, and gaming.
- Per service status pages. Each service page shows the current state and links to the provider's official status page for the authoritative source.
- Community reports. Users can submit a report that a service is down, including reasons like cannot connect, errors, cannot log in, slow, or something else.
- Desktop notifications. Status change notifications can be turned on from the dashboard so users do not have to keep refreshing the map.
- No account required. The site does not require accounts, logins, names, email addresses, or payment details to use the public status view.
Who isUpMap is for
- Solo developers whose apps depend on services like GitHub, Cloudflare, Vercel, Stripe, or OpenAI and need a fast first check when errors appear.
- AI product builders watching model providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Groq, Perplexity, Hugging Face, and ElevenLabs from one page.
- Support leads handling customer complaints who need to rule out a vendor outage before escalating a bug internally.
- Indie makers running launches across hosting, payments, email, and community tools who want a single operational snapshot.
