Cron Job Monitoring That Catches Silent Failures
Silent cron failures cost hours of debugging. Wrap any command with crond-agent and get instant alerts when jobs miss, fail, or run too slowly. No infra changes required.
Cron Job Monitoring Features
Full visibility into every scheduled task. One lightweight agent, zero infrastructure changes.
Your cron jobs ping crond.io on every run. If we don't hear back within the grace period, we alert you — before silent failures become production incidents.
Named alert channels — define a Slack webhook or email destination once, attach to many monitors. Rotate signing secrets in one place.
Branded status page with custom slug, title, description, and per-monitor visibility — all configurable from the dashboard or REST API.
Spot slow-running jobs before they cause SLA breaches. Track execution duration, success rates, and trends over time.
Manage monitors, alerts, and API keys programmatically. Type-safe OpenAPI spec included.
Wrap any cron command with our lightweight agent. Automatically reports exit codes, duration, and output.
Up and running in 60 seconds
Three commands. Full monitoring. No infra changes.
