What is Loadster?
Loadster helps engineering and SRE teams protect uptime and customer experience without standing up their own testing infrastructure. The platform combines on-demand load testing with continuous synthetic monitoring, so teams validate capacity before launches and catch problems in production between them.
Load tests run from cloud regions and simulate users at any scale — from a few hundred to many thousands of concurrent virtual users. HTTP, real browser, and Playwright-based bots cover the range from API throughput checks to full end-to-end user journeys. Reports break down response times, error rates, page rendering metrics, and per-user playback, then save into a shared history that stakeholders can review together.
The same scripts can be repurposed as 24/7 monitors that run continuously from multiple regions. Incidents flow through configurable notification policies to email, SMS, voice, or integrations like Slack and PagerDuty, and maintenance windows pause monitoring during planned work. Status pages give external audiences a clear view of service health.
Loadster is consumption-priced through Loadster Fuel, with free units to evaluate the platform and no credit card required to sign up. Engineering, QA, and SRE teams use it to validate releases, catch regressions before users do, and respond faster when something breaks.
