Monitor your cron jobs.
Catch failures before your users do.
CronBeacon monitors scheduled tasks, detects missed or late runs, and alerts your team — so silent failures never reach production unnoticed.

Silent failures are the most expensive kind.
A cron job fails at 3 AM. No one notices until Monday. By then, data is stale, reports are wrong, and customers are frustrated.
Most monitoring tools focus on uptime and infrastructure. Scheduled tasks fall through the cracks — unless you monitor them explicitly.
CronBeacon exists to close that gap.
Start monitoring in three steps.
Create a monitor
Add your job in CronBeacon. Define its expected schedule or cadence.
Send a heartbeat
Add one HTTP call at the end of your job. A single curl command is enough.
Get alerted
If a job fails, runs late, or goes missing — CronBeacon alerts your team by email, Slack, or webhook.
Built for the jobs no one watches.
Detect failures instantly
Know immediately when a job fails. No more discovering broken imports days later.
Catch late and missing runs
CronBeacon knows when a job should run. If it does not, you get alerted.
Track every environment
Monitor production, staging, and development separately. Filter by environment and tags.
Clear incident history
See what happened, when, and how often. Review past incidents without digging through logs.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
Purpose-built for cron job monitoring. No bloated dashboards, no enterprise complexity.
Heartbeat monitoring
Detect missed and silent jobs with simple HTTP pings.
Failure detection
Get alerted when a job reports an error or exits with failure.
Late-run detection
Know when a job runs behind its expected schedule.
Email and Slack alerts
Route alerts where your team already works.
Webhook alerts
Integrate with any system through standard webhooks.
Environments and tags
Organize monitors by environment, team, or project.
Incident timeline
Review past alerts, state changes, and resolution history.
Team access
Invite team members. Share visibility across your monitors.
Anything that runs on a schedule deserves monitoring.
If it should run and sometimes does not — CronBeacon watches it.
A clear view of every scheduled job.
See job status, reliability scores, and incident history at a glance. No setup complexity. No dashboard overload.
Simple pricing. No surprises.
