Manual and automatic checks
Decide whether your status page is checked automatically, or only changes when you post.
The two modes
| Paused (manual) | Checking (automatic) | |
|---|---|---|
| What happens | Nothing checks the service. | We check it from the chosen locations. |
| What visitors see | Working, unless you post an incident. | What the checks find. |
| Uptime score | Stays at 100% unless you post an incident. | Any outage we detect counts right away. |
| Plans | All | Plus (every 2 min), Innovator (every 1 min) |
Try it

Which one to pick
Manual suits a page where you want to say in your own words what is happening. Post when something is wrong: Post an incident.
Automatic suits a page that should show problems even when nobody is at the keyboard.
