An uptime monitor tells you the page returned HTTP 200. It cannot tell you the contact form on that page stopped delivering three weeks ago because an API key expired, a spam filter started swallowing submissions, or a JavaScript error broke the submit handler. FormPulse submits a real synthetic entry on a schedule and verifies it arrived at the destination, which is the only check that catches a silently broken form. The failure mode matters because a dead lead form produces no error and no alert — it quietly stops producing revenue.
Because it checks that the page loads, not that the form works. A page returning HTTP 200 with a submit handler throwing a JavaScript error, an expired API key or a misrouted webhook looks perfectly healthy to an uptime monitor.
It submits a real synthetic entry on a schedule using a tagged test identity, then verifies the submission arrived at the destination — inbox, CRM or webhook. Delivery is confirmed at the endpoint rather than inferred from a response code.
No. Submissions are tagged so they are filterable and removable, and the destination can be a dedicated test route rather than your live pipeline.
On the next scheduled run, with check frequency set per form. Contact and checkout forms usually warrant a tighter interval, since the cost of a silent failure scales with the traffic hitting it.
Yes. FormPulse is live and can be opened directly from this page, so the synthetic submission and delivery verification can be checked against the running product.
