I built Quietfail for the scheduled job that does not fail loudly. It simply stops, and nobody notices until an expected backup, sync, or report is missing. Add a ping at the end of each job, set its expected interval and grace period, and get an alert when it goes quiet. Email is on every plan; Slack and Discord are on Pro. The free plan covers 10 monitors. If you run cron jobs, I'd love to hear what you use now and what this is missing.
