How it works

1

Create a check

Set the expected frequency (cron or simple period) and a grace period.

2

Add the curl

Paste the unique ping URL into your crontab, workflow or script.

3

Get alerted

After the deadline and grace period, an alert is queued for your email, Slack or Discord channels.

Built for developers and sysadmins

Start/fail pings

Frequently asked questions

How does Cron-Ping work?

You create a check, get a unique URL, and add it to your cron (a simple curl). If the ping doesn't arrive on schedule, we alert you by email, Slack or Discord.

How does the trial work?

Add your card to activate 14 days on your selected plan. Then Pro is €9/month or Business €29/month. Cancel in billing before your trial ends to avoid the first charge.

How is it different from Healthchecks.io?

Cron-Ping has a modern UI, native Slack/Discord integrations, and is hosted in Europe (GDPR-friendly). The dead man's switch principle is the same.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Everything relies on an HTTP call. It works with Linux cron, GitHub Actions, Vercel Cron, AWS, Kubernetes, or any script that can curl.
