Show HN: PerfAgents – Find Issues Before Your Users Do with Synthetic Monitoring

Hello HN! We’re excited to share PerfAgents, a synthetic monitoring tool built for startups and enterprises seeking robust and proactive monitoring across global regions.

TL;DR:

PerfAgents is a synthetic monitoring platform that uses your existing E2E automation scripts (Playwright, Puppeteer, Cypress, and Selenium) for web app monitoring, reducing setup time by 80%. No complex integrations, no vendor lock-in, and proactive alerts that let you catch bugs before users do.

Problem We’re Solving:

Ensuring application reliability across all regions is tough, especially when existing monitoring tools either require extensive DevOps/QA setup or lock users into proprietary workflows. This results in inefficient workflows, delayed issue detection, and, often, user-facing bugs in production environments.

How We Solved It:

PerfAgents offers a multi-framework approach that lets you monitor app functionality without needing new integrations or script re-recording. By reusing existing end-to-end scripts, PerfAgents makes setup fast, keeps monitoring flexible, and allows teams to detect and resolve issues faster.

Features include:

-> Multi-framework support for Playwright, Puppeteer, Cypress, and Selenium

-> AI-driven monitoring script generation to automate monitoring setups with no code

-> Global test execution for instant insights across regions

-> Real-time alerts integrated with popular tools (Slack, PagerDuty, Jira)

-> Flexible pricing based on execution frequency, not script complexity

How It Works:

-> Setup: Connect your GitHub repository to import existing scripts, or use our built-in AI tools for zero-code setups.

-> Monitor & Alert: Configure regional monitoring and alert channels, with real-time notifications when an issue occurs.

-> Optimize & Scale: Review logs, performance reports, and leverage our multi-framework support to refine application flow monitoring.

Key Benefits:

-> Faster issue resolution: Early detection and instant alerts prevent downtime and improve stability.

-> Cross-team collaboration: Centralized data helps DevOps, QA, and product teams collaborate more effectively.

-> Flexible framework support: Avoid vendor lock-in with multi-framework compatibility.

-> High scalability: Configurable monitoring counts ensure you’re only paying for what you use.

PerfAgents is already in use by Fortune 500 companies and has helped SaaS and e-commerce teams reduce downtime by 40% and cut support tickets by nearly 57%.

Who It’s For:

-> DevOps, QA, and Engineering leaders looking to optimize monitoring setup and execution

-> Teams already using frameworks like Playwright, Puppeteer, Cypress, or Selenium

-> SaaS and e-commerce platforms where reliable, global user flows are critical
