About

Healthchecks.io is a cron job and scheduled task monitoring service that alerts you when background jobs fail to run on time. Users configure checks with period and grace time parameters, then ping a unique URL from their scripts to signal successful completion. The service supports a wide range of notification integrations including email, SMS, Slack, PagerDuty, and more.

Problem

Scheduled tasks and cron jobs can silently fail without anyone noticing until damage is done.

For

Developers and system administrators who run scheduled tasks or background jobs

How it works

Each monitored job pings a unique Healthchecks.io URL on completion; if the ping is not received within the configured period plus grace time, an alert is sent via the user's chosen notification channels.
