What is WatchCron?

WatchCron keeps an eye on your cron jobs and scheduled tasks so you don't have to. Each monitor gets a unique ping URL — your job hits it on success, and WatchCron tracks the rest.

Key capabilities:

  • Unique ping endpoints for each monitored job
  • Alerts via email, Slack, and webhooks when jobs miss their schedule
  • Grace periods and custom schedules (cron expressions supported)
  • Execution time tracking to catch jobs that run too long
  • Team dashboards with per-job status and history
  • Multi-timezone support
  • Simple integration — one curl call at the end of your script

Works with any language, any scheduler, any infrastructure. If it can make an HTTP request, WatchCron can monitor it.
