It seems a little dishonest to put such information for a tool that has just been released :

- 50M+ Checks Daily - 99.99% Uptime SLA - Trusted by Teams Worldwide (fake quotes ?)

Also i can't count how much similar products launching i saw during the past months...

Ohh, we are not just released. Monitoring infrastructure has been in place for a solid 5 years through the MySiteUptime brand. That portion focused only on monitoring and was sold directly to B2B customers or resold through networking vendors. Since the underlying monitoring stack is the same and powers the StatusDrift brand, the monitoring and customer numbers are real. Expansion to incident management, on-call, and status pages is new and under this brand. Before that, we literally used ServiceNow or some other status page competitors as integrations.

I also noticed quite a bit of uptrend in uptime monitoring tools. Thank you for the feedback. Maybe I should add a note to those quotes
