Pre-launch checks

Find launch blockers before users or clients find them

Uptraq gives small SaaS teams, indie makers, and agencies a project-first launch check workflow: add targets, run Basic Launch Checks or Full Launch Cycles, fix blockers, recheck, then turn passing targets into Launch Watch monitoring.

What Uptraq checks

Release readiness with inspectable evidence

These pages are focused on the pre-launch workflow. Monitoring stays available after release, but the first job is to find launch blockers early.

What gets checked

A launch check should cover the surfaces users actually touch during release, not only the homepage.

DNS resolution, HTTPS, redirects, SSL expiry, and TLS connection evidence
HTTP status, response time, error-page heuristics, and expected content
Security header warnings for CSP, HSTS, frame, and content-type protections
Homepage, API health, checkout, webhook, heartbeat, mobile backend, and H5/WebView URLs

How it differs from uptime monitoring

Uptime monitoring starts after something is live. Pre-launch checks answer whether the release path is ready before you announce, hand off, or start paid traffic.

Find blockers before a release window instead of waiting for an outage
Store findings as a launch report, not only a live monitor state
Copy a Repair Prompt for the smallest safe fix
Run a recheck against the same scope after repairs

Where monitoring fits

Passing once is not enough for launch week. Uptraq turns project targets into linked monitors through Launch Watch when the release goes live.

Create monitor coverage from project targets
Keep launch sessions tied to reports and incidents
Alert through paid-plan notification channels
Generate Incident Fix Briefs if a watched target breaks
Workflow

From launch target to post-launch watch

01

Add project targets

Group web, API, checkout, webhook, heartbeat, and mobile backend targets under one product.

02

Run checks

Use Basic Launch Check for quick validation or Full Launch Cycle for stored multi-target reports.

03

Fix and recheck

Use blockers, warnings, and Repair Prompts to repair the release path, then compare results.

04

Start Launch Watch

Convert passing targets into linked monitors for the launch window.

Plan fit

Use pre-launch checks without forcing monitoring-first adoption

Some customers only need launch checks. Some only need monitors. Paid LaunchOps plans connect both workflows when a product needs the full loop.

Free
1 project, 1 Basic Launch Check per month, and 3 monitors for low-stakes validation.
Solo
Monthly Full Launch Cycle, rechecks, Launch Watch, alerts, and basic Incident Fix Briefs.
Pro
More projects, more launch cycles, keyword/content checks, and full repair prompts.
Agency
Portfolio-scale limits, client-ready reporting, white-label support, and higher Launch Watch capacity.
FAQ

Common questions

Is this a checklist or an automated test?

It is an automated readiness workflow. Uptraq runs deterministic checks and stores evidence in a report so the team can repair and recheck the same scope.

Does AI decide whether a launch passed?

No. Pass, warning, and fail decisions come from deterministic checker results. AI can summarize evidence and produce repair-oriented text.

Can I use it only before launch and skip monitoring?

Yes. Some users only need pre-launch checks. Others use Launch Watch and monitors after release. Uptraq supports both workflows.
