// NAME

whatbroketoday - a service that watches the internet fall apart so you don't have to

// SYNOPSIS

We monitor 100+ services and tell you when they're having a bad day. AWS, GitHub, Cloudflare, OpenAI, Stripe... if it can break, we're watching it.

// DESCRIPTION

Status pages are corporate poetry. "We're experiencing elevated error rates" means "everything is on fire and the on-call engineer is crying." We cut through the PR-speak and tell you what's actually happening.

Our monitoring bot checks RSS feeds every 5 minutes. When something breaks, we use AI to filter out the noise (scheduled maintenance, resolved issues from 3 days ago) and alert you to what actually matters.

// WHY

Because we've all been in that meeting where your dashboard stops loading and your boss asks "is it us or them?" Now you'll know. Usually it's them.

// OPTIONS

--telegram
Join our Telegram channel for real-time alerts. Your phone will buzz before your monitoring does.

--twitter
Follow @outagewtf for the hot takes.

--rss
Subscribe to our RSS feed like it's 2008.

// BUGS

Probably. If our monitoring goes down, who monitors the monitors? It's turtles all the way down.
