Hi, I'm Tyler from PingCron.

Your app can be up while a nightly backup or data sync has stopped checking in. PingCron watches for the check-in you expected from that job.

Keep your existing scheduler. Send a check-in after the required work and validation succeed, then get an email, Slack or Discord alert if the next expected check-in is missing beyond its grace period.

You can start with 5 free monitors and 7 days of history. No credit card needed. If you'd rather try a tool before signing up, there's a free GitHub Actions cron checker on the site too.

One important limit: PingCron doesn't run or repair jobs, and a check-in doesn't prove that their output is correct. Your job still needs its own validation.

I'd love feedback on the setup: which scheduled job would you monitor first, and is anything unclear when adding it?
