Your cron jobs are failing silently.
We tell you why.

Other tools say "job missed." CronGuard tells you why it failed and how to fix it. One curl command to set up.

# Add one line to your crontab

AI:Disk full on /var/data — PostgreSQL could not write WAL segments. The backup process stalled waiting for disk space, then timed out.

Suggested fix: df -h /var/data && sudo apt autoremove && sudo journalctl --vacuum-size=500M

How It Works

Add one line

Append a curl command after your cron job. When the job runs, it pings your unique CronGuard endpoint.

Smart alerting kicks in

If the ping doesn't arrive on schedule, CronGuard detects it and classifies severity. Adaptive thresholds learn your jobs' normal behavior and suppress false alarms — 60-80% less noise than binary monitors.

AI tells you why

Send exit codes and stderr with your ping, and CronGuard diagnoses the root cause with a suggested fix. Delivered to your inbox, Slack, Discord, Teams, or PagerDuty.
