Welcome
Aepto is the domain monitoring dashboard at app.aepto.com. Keep your portfolio in one place, watch uptime, DNS, SSL, and renewals, and get alerts when something needs attention.
Domain portfolio
Add names with Quick Add with AI. Aepto fills registrar, hosting, SSL, nameservers, and related fields so you are not typing WHOIS by hand. Organize with folders, switch Cards or Spreadsheet, and keep renewal cost accurate for expense reports.
Per domain you can turn on Website monitoring, Theft Guard, and DNS change tracking. Pricing syncs from a large set of registrars - see the list under Managing domains.
Monitoring and status
Check sites from multiple regions on an interval you choose. Optional AI Content Monitoring catches white screens, MySQL/database errors, WordPress critical errors, and similar failures that a plain HTTP 200 can miss. Slow Response Alerts warn when latency degrades against your site’s baseline. Publish a public status page for customers. Paid plans can also watch third-party API quotas (Stripe, HubSpot, GitHub, and others) so you know before a vendor limit bites.
Finding and watching names
AI Discovery generates name ideas and checks availability (uses AI credits). Domain Watch tracks names you care about but may not own yet, with alerts when status changes.
Who gets notified
Add verified contacts under Domains, then Contacts, and assign notification types (monitoring, renewals, Theft Guard, DNS, and more). For Slack, Zapier, or your own tools, use Alert webhooks.
Optional apps
If you want tools outside the dashboard, Aepto also has a free Chrome extension (tech stack on any tab), a free WordPress plugin (Domain Anchor on the site), and an official Claude connector (full portfolio ops from chat — setup, monitors, AI naming, DNS, Watch, Theft Guard). All three can sign in with Aepto when you want them linked to your account.
