Observed health

No samples qualify for a combined success and latency score.

Evidence strength

No current issue evidence

No current corroborated or observed finding.

Evidence describes support for an issue, not its outage probability.

How this score works

100 × successful samples within the latency target ÷ assessed samples. Targets use a historical operation-latency baseline and are heuristic. Server failures count as failed samples; successful responses without a qualified target are shown separately. Only named operations are measured. Vendor statements, report volume, forecasts and incident records do not add score points.

A component issue stays visible even when other operations pass. Forecasts are separate from current health.

Auto-drafted postmortem

Affirm: vendor-reported minor incident on September 29 (tracked 1h 24m)

Sep 29, 07:29 PM → Sep 29, 08:54 PM · 1h 24m · medium

Affirm reported a minor-impact incident on its own status page. PulseWatch followed the vendor's status page and did not independently confirm the incident. PulseWatch tracked the incident for 1h 24m, from Tue, 29 Sep 2026 19:29:44 GMT to Tue, 29 Sep 2026 20:54:33 GMT. That is how long PulseWatch kept the incident open, not a measurement of how long the service was affected.
