What's new in Monitrova: a full website scan, daily security checks and much faster down alerts

by•

Hi everyone 👋

We've shipped a lot to Monitrova over the last few weeks, so here's a roundup in one place.

🔍 Full website scan
One scan covering uptime, SSL, DNS, email security, headers, performance and WordPress. You get a 0 to 100 score and a grade, and your top findings for free with no signup. Create an account to see every finding with instructions for fixing it.

🛡️ Daily security checks
Every site you monitor is now checked daily for exposed files (like a public .env), weak TLS settings, broken SPF/DMARC/MTA-STS records, dangling DNS records and known WordPress plugin and theme vulnerabilities. Serious problems send an alert. Smaller ones show up as tasks in your daily to-do list.

⚡ Down alerts in about a minute, on every plan
When a check fails, the site switches to one-minute rechecks until it's back. On the Free plan, the first "down" email used to arrive about an hour after an outage started. Now the outage is confirmed in about a minute.

🤫 Fewer false alarms

  • A Cloudflare bot challenge is no longer reported as "down"

  • Sites that block our checker no longer trigger false SSL alerts

  • An SSL certificate missing its intermediate certificates is repaired automatically during the check instead of being reported as down

  • "Up but broken" pages are now caught: suspended hosting, parked domains and default server pages

🧰 Free tools that go deeper (still no signup)
WordPress vulnerability detection, exposed-file checks, DKIM, MTA-STS, CAA and dangling-CNAME checks, TLS versions and key strength, real-user Core Web Vitals, and CDN/WAF detection. Run the same site again and the result tells you what changed since the last check.

🔔 Alerts you can control
Maintenance windows, quiet hours, a cooldown per incident and signed webhooks.

✨ Easier to get started
Signup takes two fields. There's a light mode, a 7-day free trial on paid plans, annual billing with 2 months free, and the whole app is available in English and Spanish.

You can try any of the tools for free at

A question for you: what's the one thing your current monitor gets wrong, or never checks? We're deciding what to build next, and replies here go straight onto the list. 🙏
