Description
Quietfail watches scheduled jobs for missed check-ins. Give each job a ping URL and call it when the job succeeds. If a ping doesn't arrive within the expected interval plus grace period, Quietfail emails you; Pro can alert via Slack or Discord. Free for up to 10 monitors, with no credit card required.
