Catch DNS changes before they cause an outage
One monitor watches a whole domain, across every record type it checks — A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and NS — so hijacking and misconfiguration surface as findings rather than outages.

Detection
Everything you need
A closer look at what you get, from the first check to the alert that reaches you.
Record change detection
A watched record that changes or stops resolving is reported on the next check.
Every record type in one monitor
One monitor checks A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and NS records at every name it tracks.
Hijack detection
Unexpected DNS changes are often the first sign of an account compromise.
New records are reported
A record that appears beside the ones you imported is reported as an addition, not hidden inside a changed value.
How it works
Three steps from an empty dashboard to checks that run on their own.
Add a DNS monitor
Enter the domain you want to watch, and paste your zone file to cover its other names.
Review what we found
Uptime checks every record type at every name it knows about, and you pick which records to watch.
Get alerted on change
A watched record that changes or disappears, or a record that appears unannounced, triggers an alert.
Frequently asked questions
The questions people ask most before they start monitoring.
Which record types can I monitor?
Six: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT and NS. CAA, SOA, SRV and the rest aren't checked yet.
Does one monitor cover my subdomains?
Only the names it knows about. DNS can't be listed from outside a zone, so a monitor covers your domain itself unless you paste a zone file naming the rest.
Why would my DNS records change unexpectedly?
Account compromise, registrar misconfiguration, or an expired domain are the most common causes.
