APIMetricsAutoAlert: Endpoint Performance Watcher
Real-time dashboard that tracks API response times, error rates, and latency spikes for indie developers and small teams, sending Slack/Discord alerts when thresholds break.
The Problem
Solo developers and small teams building with third-party APIs (Stripe, OpenAI, Supabase, etc.) have no cheap way to monitor if those APIs are degrading their app performance. They wake up to angry users instead of proactive warnings. Existing solutions like DataDog or New Relic cost $500+/month and are overkill.
Target Audience
Solo indie hackers, pre-Series A startups, and vibe coders who've deployed 2-5 production apps and want sub-$50/month observability without engineering overhead.
Why Now?
AI tools make building observability UIs trivial now. Cursor + Lovable can scaffold a dashboard in days. Indie app economy is exploding and people actually want this but won't pay enterprise prices.
What's Missing
Every existing APM tool assumes you're a big company with DevOps people. No one has built a 'set it and forget it' alerting system for people who just want to know when their third-party API calls are slow.
