Free tools

Calculators and testers we built for ourselves and decided to put online. No signup, no tracking beyond what the rest of the site already does, everything runs in your browser.

Calculator

SLA Uptime Calculator

Convert an uptime percentage into allowed downtime per day, week, month, and year. Or go the other way: enter your downtime and get the percentage you actually hit.

Calculator

Error Budget Calculator

Turn an SLO into a concrete error budget, see how much you've burned, and find out whether you'll make it to the end of the window at the current rate.

Tester

Cron Expression Tester

Paste a cron expression and get a plain-English description plus the next 10 run times, shown in your timezone and UTC side by side.

Generator

On-Call Rotation Generator

Enter your team, pick a handoff day and time, and get a full rotation schedule you can download as an .ics file for any calendar app.

Tester

JSON Path Tester

Paste a JSON response, type a dot path like result.items[0].id, and see exactly what it extracts. Useful for writing API assertions.

Calculator

Downtime Cost Calculator

Estimate what an outage costs you in lost revenue and engineering time, broken down per minute. Sobering numbers for your next infra budget discussion.
