Pricing Change History (2 recorded)

Retracted — this record was our error (2026-10-02). Retracted 2026-10-02: nothing increased. The Free plan on UptimeRobot's pricing page lists the same 50 monitors, 5-minute interval and monitor types as the Internet Archive's capture of 2026-09-23. Our listing named fewer of the monitor types; the plan did not change. Source ↗

How UptimeRobot compares against every one of the 24 we list, not against a selection of them. A surface with room for every member of a tied set may rotate their order. A surface with room for only some of them names none of them, because which ones it named would be the claim, and a claim seeded on the date is not the one we serve tomorrow. How we decide this.
