IsItDownAPI presents 60SecMonitor, a vendor outage monitoring service with a vendor catalog, an incident feed, a reliability leaderboard, API docs and pricing pages. It offers real-time vendor outage monitoring, AI-drafted incident hypotheses, multi-region synthetic checks and a public detection scoreboard that is marked 'calibration in progress'.
Access is through an API and an MCP endpoint, with an llms.txt file, and it is listed in the official MCP Registry. Pricing is pay-per-call, settled in USDC via x402: a vendor status check or a recent incidents lookup costs 1 cent, and checking up to 25 vendors at once costs 5 cents. Agents need no signup. No free tier is stated.
IsItDownAPI was built as an API-first way to check on vendor and SaaS outages without standing up a full monitoring stack.
