Your site is up.
But is it working?
Most monitors only ping your server. Velprove logs into your site with a real browser. Tests your APIs end-to-end, validates page content, and watches your SSL. You'll know the moment anything breaks, before your customers do.
A 200 OK doesn't mean your site works.
Your homepage returns 200 while your login form rejects every password, your signup API returns a 500 on the third call, or your contact form silently drops every message. Velprove checks the things your customers actually do, so you find out before they do.
PING Traditional monitoring
- HTTP 200 status: verified on every probe
- Logged-in pages: stops at the login form
- Form submissions: can't tell if the request succeeded
- Response checks: status code only
- SSL certificate expiry: finds out when browsers warn customers
REAL USER FLOW Velprove
- HTTP 200 status: verified, then we keep reading
- Logged-in pages: real browser, real password, real session
- Form submissions: POSTs and checks the response is right
- Response checks: body, headers, JSON path, response time
- SSL certificate expiry: alerts you N days before it expires
Watch the flows, not just the pings.
Browser logins, HTTP and SSL, API checks, and multi-step API workflows.
Browser login monitors
Enter your login URL, username, and password. Velprove drives a real Chromium browser, signs in, and asserts the post-login page rendered. Free on every plan.
HTTP and SSL monitoring
Loads your URL and checks status code, response time, and page content. Every HTTPS monitor also tracks that certificate's expiry, with an alert threshold you set from 1 to 90 days.
API checks
Send requests with custom headers and body, then validate responses with JSON path assertions. Any method, any endpoint, plus status-code and response-timing assertions.
Multi-step API workflows
Chain auth → fetch → assert. Pass values between steps with JSONPath extraction. Validate response bodies, headers, and timing per step.
5 regions to watch from.
A site up in New York can be down in Tokyo. Velprove probes from North America, Europe, the UK, Asia, and Oceania. Catch the regional outages a single-location tool can't see.

Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about functional monitoring and browser login monitors.
What is functional monitoring? +
Traditional uptime monitoring only checks that your server replied with a 200. Functional monitoring verifies APIs return correct data, multi-step workflows finish, and real login pages work. The things your users care about.
How do browser login monitors work? +
You enter a URL, username, and password. Velprove drives a real Chromium browser to the page, auto-detects the form fields, fills credentials, clicks submit, and verifies login succeeded. If anything fails, you get an alert with a screenshot showing exactly what the browser saw.
Are my credentials safe? +
Credentials are encrypted at rest and never logged or exposed in monitor results. They're decrypted in memory only at check time. We recommend a dedicated monitoring account with limited permissions rather than a personal or admin account.
Do I need to install anything? +
No. Velprove is fully cloud-hosted. Sign up, add your first monitor, pick a region, and the first check fires within seconds. Want global coverage? Deploy the same monitor across all five regions.
What happens when a monitor fails? +
You get an instant alert. Email on every plan. Slack, Discord, Teams, and webhooks on Starter. PagerDuty on Pro. For browser monitors, a screenshot is captured at the moment of failure so you can see what the browser saw.
Can I migrate from UptimeRobot or Pingdom? +
Yes. Velprove works alongside or as a drop-in replacement for existing monitoring tools. Add your first monitor and see the first check result within seconds.
