AVILD AI LLC

Businesses often learn that their website, online store or booking page is down from angry customers, hours later. Their online footprint also grows without anyone keeping a list: old subdomains, test servers and forgotten APIs keep running, and nobody watches them. wmon.ai is a hosted monitoring service that solves both problems. A customer adds a website, API, TCP port or host, and wmon checks it as often as every 30 seconds. When a check fails, the team gets an e-mail alert, and the incident appears on the company's own public status page at name.wmon.ai, so its customers see what is happening without calling support. Onboarding takes seconds. When a customer proves a domain is theirs with a DNS record, wmon builds an inventory of everything under it: subdomains, websites, APIs and health endpoints, including ones the customer forgot. AI tags every asset precisely and checks its configuration, then offers it as a ready-to-use monitor that the customer switches on in one click. Beyond individual customers, wmon.ai currently monitors the complete .az domain in real time.

AI is what makes onboarding take seconds instead of hours without further configs. Most companies don't have an up-to-date list of what they run, and setting up monitoring by hand means deciding, for every asset, what it is, how important it is and what a healthy response looks like. When a customer verifies a domain, wmon discovers the assets under it and the AI does that work for them. Precise tagging. Every asset is classified as a website, API or infrastructure. as production or staging, as public or internal, and as business-critical when it handles login, authentication, payments or checkout. It also gets a readable name. The tags drive the setup: critical assets and APIs are checked every 30 seconds, websites every minute and infrastructure every 5 minutes. Configuration checks. Before an asset is added, it is tested for liveness and its configuration is checked: which status codes it normally returns, whether it answers like a web page or like an API, and when its TLS certificate and domain registration expire. An endpoint that correctly answers "unauthorized" is expected to do so, so it never raises a false alarm. Ready-made monitors. The result is an inventory of tagged, pre-configured monitors. The customer reviews them and switches them on in one click instead of setting each one up by hand. A wmon MCP server will let AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Codex read and manage a customer's monitors and incidents in plain language.
Impact / results
wmon.ai went live on 28 September 2026. In its first 7 days: 7 businesses onboarded, including bsc.az, dostlombard.az, logacademy.az, booo.az, maxofset.az, fixit.az and boyaevi.az. Over 10000+ checks performed, 5 outages detected and alerted, and 1 public status pages published. Onboarding: 7 verified domains, with over 100 assets discovered, tagged and configured automatically. In a test on avild.com, wmon found 3 candidate endpoints, confirmed 2 as live, and added them tagged and configured in about 23 seconds. Coverage: the complete .az domain monitored in real time since 30 September 2026. Reliability: 99% availability of wmon.ai itself since launch. Every deploy goes through CI/CD with a staged rollout and automatic rollback, and there is no manual server access.
Innovation
Most monitoring tools only watch what a customer remembers to add, and every monitor has to be set up by hand. wmon.ai finds what the customer forgot, and its AI tags and configures each asset automatically, so a business gets complete, correctly configured monitoring minutes after signing up. Attack-surface discovery tools exist, but they are priced for large enterprises and don't include uptime alerts or a public status page. wmon puts discovery, AI-assisted setup, monitoring and status pages into one product that a small business can use. For Azerbaijan, wmon.ai is to our knowledge the first locally built monitoring and status-page service, free during early access and priced for SMEs. It currently monitors the complete .az domain in real time, and ALL internet on-demand.
Connection to Azerbaijan
All seven of wmon.ai's first customers are Azerbaijani businesses: bsc.az, dostlombard.az, logacademy.az, booo.az, maxofset.az, fixit.az and boyaevi.az. wmon.ai currently monitors the complete .az domain in real time from inside, which can not be accessed during emergency situations reliably from other countries. That gives it a live view of the Azerbaijani web, which can help local businesses, hosting providers and security teams find exposed or forgotten systems before attackers do. As more of Azerbaijan's economy moves online, whether a site is up, and how honestly a company communicates during an outage, directly shapes trust in local digital services. wmon gives Azerbaijani SMEs the monitoring and status-page tools that large companies use, at a price SMEs can afford.
