By crowdsourcing live problem reports submitted by real users worldwide, we can detect a massive Kickstarter crash literally within seconds of it beginning.

By comparing the live influx of complaints to a standard 7-day algorithmic baseline, our anomaly detection engine spots real outages instantly. When the reporting volume shatters the threshold, the alert goes out. This ensures that when you look for a Kickstarter down detector, you are always getting mathematically proven, community-verified outage maps.
