Comparison
HyperMonitors vs Checkly Checkly is built around monitoring as code: your checks live in a repo as TypeScript, deploy through CI, and can run your real Playwright end-to-end suite in production. If that's what you need, buy Checkly. If you want uptime checks, alerting, and status pages you can set up in a browser in five minutes, HyperMonitors is the simpler fit — 60-second checks are on the $5 plan rather than the $24 one.

Where Checkly is stronger
Checkly's monitoring-as-code workflow is the best in the market: checks version-controlled in your repo, reviewed in pull requests, deployed by CLI, with a Terraform provider and a published OpenAPI spec. It runs real Playwright suites as production monitors with traces and video on failure, supports multistep API workflows, gRPC and traceroute checks, and offers private locations for internal networks. For a platform team that wants monitors reviewed like code, nothing here competes.
Pricing that stays out of your way Checkly's entry paid plan starts at $24/mo (Starter). Ours starts at $5/mo — and Free is free forever.
