# Status pages

Public status pages, custom domains, notices and email updates for your customers.


A status page shows the monitors you pick, their 90-day uptime, recent incidents and any notices you post. It shows monitor names, never URLs. Each page lives at `pulsefast.io/s/your-name`.

## Your own domain

From the Starter plan, a page can live on your domain, such as `status.example.com`:

1. Enter the domain on the status page's settings and save.
2. Prove it's yours: add the TXT record the page shows (`_pulsefast.status.example.com` with a
   `pulsefast-verify=…` value), then click **Verify domain**.
3. Point it at Pulsefast: `CNAME status.example.com → pulsefast.io`.
4. HTTPS is set up automatically within a few minutes.

## Notices

Automatic incidents say *what* is down. Notices let you say *why*, and what you're doing about it. Open **Notices** next to a status page, post one with a state (Investigating, Identified, Monitoring, Resolved, or Announcement for planned news), and add updates as things change. Open notices appear at the top of the page; resolved ones stay listed for 14 days.

## Email updates

From the Starter plan, visitors can subscribe to a page. They confirm by email, then hear about outages, recoveries and every notice update, and can unsubscribe from any email. Emails say which service is affected but never include technical details such as error messages. Plans include 100 (Starter), 500 (Pro), 2,000 (Team) or 10,000 (Business) subscribers.

## Scheduled maintenance

Maintenance windows covering a page's monitors are listed on the page from a week ahead, and the page shows *Scheduled maintenance in progress* while one is running. See [Maintenance](/docs/maintenance).
