Quietfail watches scheduled jobs for missed check-ins. Give each job a ping URL and call it when the job succeeds. If a ping doesn't arrive within the expected interval plus grace period, Quietfail emails you; Pro can alert via Slack or Discord. Free for up to 10 monitors, with no credit card required.
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.
