About
Free app that shows real-time safety incidents on a map. Sourced from official Toronto data (police, fire) + community reports. Think Waze for neighbourhood safety.

Uptime monitoring is crowded but the real differentiator is always alert quality — getting paged at 3am for a blip that resolved in 10 seconds is almost worse than missing a real outage. How does Alertly handle transient failures vs. sustained downtime? And what's the check frequency on the free tier — that's usually where these tools make their tradeoffs.

Thanks for the thoughtful read, though quick clarification. Alertly isn't uptime monitoring. It's a community safety app that surfaces verified local incidents (fires, collisions, medical emergencies) in real time, sourced from official feeds like Toronto Police and Fire Services plus community reports. Different kind of "alert" entirely. Happy to dig in if the safety side is interesting.

Real-time safety incidents on a map is genuinely useful. The Toronto data sourcing is a smart starting point — are there plans to expand to other cities, or is the focus on making it really deep for one city first?

Toronto first on purpose: going deep before wide. The clustering, verification loop, and neighbourhood coverage need to feel tight in one city before we scale. Cheers!

Really useful app (though I'm not based in Toronto). All the best!
