Every cron job has a heartbeat. We listen for it.
Every scheduled job pings Heartcron when it finishes, and we check your sites from several regions. If a beat is missed, you hear about it in Telegram, Slack, Discord or email before your users do.
Free plan, no credit card. We’ll email you a sign-in link.
Two ways to watch, one dashboard
Most teams run a cron monitor and an uptime monitor side by side. Heartcron does both.
Your jobs ping us
Backups, reports, queue workers, certificate renewals: anything on a schedule. Add one line to the end of the job. If the ping doesn’t arrive on time, something broke.
- Cron expressions with time zones, or a simple period
- Start and finish signals to catch jobs that hang
- Exit codes and the last lines of output, kept with each run
We ping your sites
Add a URL, host or domain and we check it around the clock, every minute on paid plans.
- HTTP status codes and a keyword on the page
- Open TCP ports for databases, mail and game servers
- SSL certificates and domain registrations, warned weeks before they expire
- A public status page you can share with customers
A down alert means it’s really down
Every failure is confirmed from at least two regions before anyone is notified. One flaky network route won’t wake you at 4 a.m.
Checks run from North America and Europe, and more regions are on the way.
Alerts in the chat you already read
Connect a channel in under a minute. You get one message when something goes down and one when it’s back, not a flood every time a check runs.
