DNS Notify
DNSNotify monitors DNS records, SSL certificates, nameserver delegation, and domain registration changes
About DNS Notify
DNSNotify is a developer-focused monitoring tool for DNS, SSL certificates, nameserver delegation, and domain registrations. The homepage positions it around catching real infrastructure changes before they turn into outages.
The site says DNSNotify watches DNS records, delegations, certificates, and domain registration details, then sends alerts when those monitored items actually change. It explicitly says it does not provide complex scores, generic recommendations, or AI analysis.
The workflow is simple: scan a domain, select the records to monitor, and receive alerts when changes are detected. A free manual scan is also available to check DNS records, nameservers, SSL certificates, and WHOIS registration.
Pricing is listed as £5/month per 5 domains, with a 7-day free trial and no card required. The homepage also includes a monthly/yearly pricing toggle, but yearly pricing details were not visible in the crawled page.
We could not verify Public API availability or developer documentation from the website or whether DNSNotify can be self-hosted.
