Tired of cron jobs failing silently? CronGuard is dead-simple monitoring: add one curl to your script, get instant alerts when it doesn't run. Open source, self-hostable, with a modern UI that doesn't feel like 2010. Free tier includes 5 monitors forever. Pro starts at €9/mo for 50 monitors — that's 10x cheaper than Cronitor.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built CronGuard after my backup script failed silently for 2 weeks. When I looked for monitoring tools, I found Healthchecks.io (works, but dated UI) and Cronitor ($200/mo for 100 monitors — ouch). So I built what I wanted: one curl command, instant Slack/email alerts, modern dashboard. It's fully open source and self-hostable via Docker. What makes it different: • Dead simple — no complex setup, no learning curve • Self-host option for sensitive environments • 10x more affordable than enterprise alternatives I'd love your feedback — what features would make this useful for your cron jobs?
