Cronomonitor is a heartbeat monitoring service for cron jobs and scheduled tasks: each job pings a unique URL when it runs, and Cronomonitor alerts you by email, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams or webhook when a job doesn't run, fails, runs too long or slows down.

Hi Product Hunters!

I built cronomonitor.com after spending hours trying to figure out when a service I needed had stopped working in my day job.

How it works:
Every scheduled job pings its own URL when it finishes. If a ping doesn't arrive on time, the job reports a failure, if a run takes too long you get an alert. Just one line at the end of the crontab entry is enough.

How it's different:

  • Paste your crontab and it creates every check, all you need to do is paste back to your crontab with the pings added.

  • It catches the sneaky failures, jobs that exit 0, runs that hang, slow running runs.

  • Less noise; alerts only after repeated failures.

  • Maintenance window scheduling.

  • Ready-made set up for; systemd, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Python, Node, Ruby, and Laravel.

  • Monthly uptime reports and CSV exports.

    There's a 14 day trial with no card needed, and a 25% discount on your first purchase (monthly/yearly, starter/team).

    I'd love your feedback, feature suggestions, or even a hello email.
