Tool Reference
67 checks, grouped by the part of the stack they interrogate. Each page covers what the check actually tells you, when it is worth running, and what changes when you stop running it by hand.
DNS & Domains
DNS is where most outages start and where the fewest people look first. These tools answer what a resolver actually returns, how far a change has spread, and how long you have before something expires.

TLS & Certificates
A certificate problem is a total outage with no warning and no partial failure mode. These tools inspect the chain a client is actually served, not the one you think you deployed.

Email Deliverability
Email fails quietly. Nothing bounces, nothing alerts, and the first symptom is a customer saying they never received it. These tools check the records that decide whether you land in the inbox.

- BIMI Record Checker Validate a domain's BIMI record, the SVG logo it points to, and the DMARC enforcement BIMI requires before any mail cli…
Network Path & Reachability
When something is slow or unreachable, the question is which hop is responsible. These tools narrow it from "the internet is broken" to a specific link, host or port.
- Ping Send ICMP echo requests to measure round-trip time and packet loss — the baseline measurement every other network diagn…
- Traceroute Map the network path to a host hop by hop with per-hop latency, and learn which of the results are genuinely a problem …

HTTP & Web Delivery
A 200 response proves a server answered, not that it answered correctly or quickly. These tools inspect the full exchange — headers, redirects, timing and payload.

- HTTP/2 Load Generator Drive concurrent HTTP/1.1 or HTTP/2 load at an endpoint and measure throughput, latency distribution and the concurrenc…
Security & Exposure
Exposure accumulates: a forgotten port, a stale certificate authority record, a debug endpoint left enabled. These tools enumerate what is reachable from outside your network.

Addressing & Routing
The reference layer underneath everything else — what an address belongs to, which prefix announces it, and whether the subnet maths you did in your head was right.
