Know when routine work stops.
Simple missed-run alerts for backups, exports, scheduled reports, and no-code workflows.
See how it worksThe recurring problem should not require recurring effort.
Backups, exports, syncs, nightly reports, and automated workflows often fail quietly. The problem is discovered only when the missing result is needed.
The backup that silently stopped three weeks ago. The export your Monday report depends on. The payroll sync no one noticed failed — until someone asked where the file was.
One focused workflow. One clear view.
Each routine checks in when it finishes. If the expected signal does not arrive, RoutineSignal sends one clear alert with the routine name, missed time, and next step.
Create a routine
Add a routine and get a unique check-in URL or email address. Name it in business language: nightly backup, Friday export, payroll sync.
Your job checks in
Your backup, export, report, or workflow pings the check-in link the moment it finishes — one line at the end of your script:
curl https://routinesignal.rickyscontrolcenter.com/ping/abc123
You hear only when it matters
If the check-in does not arrive on schedule plus grace, you get one clear alert by email or webhook. Healthy runs stay quiet.
Dependable monitoring, without infrastructure jargon.
Everything you need to confirm recurring work ran — and nothing built only for infrastructure engineers.
Unique check-in URL or email
Each routine gets its own check-in address. No agents, no SDK — just a single ping at the end of the job.
Daily, weekly, monthly, or custom schedules
Match each routine to how often it actually runs. Set the cadence in plain terms and RoutineSignal does the math.
Grace periods and maintenance windows
Allow for slow runs and planned downtime so you only hear about real misses — not normal variation.
Email and webhook alerts
Get a plain-language alert by email, or fire a webhook into Slack, PagerDuty, or your own systems.
Simple run history
See when each routine last checked in and which runs were late, in a clean timeline anyone can read.

Questions, answered plainly.
How do check-ins work?
Create a routine and RoutineSignal gives you a unique check-in URL or email address. Add it to the end of the job — a single request when the task finishes. RoutineSignal records each successful check-in and only alerts you when an expected one is late.
What counts as a missed run?
You set how often each routine should run and add a grace period for normal variation. If no check-in arrives within the schedule plus its grace period, the run is considered missed and you get one clear alert with the routine name, the time it was expected, and the next step.
Do you support webhooks and integrations?
Yes. Alerts can go out by email or webhook, so you can route them into Slack, PagerDuty, or your own systems. Any job that can make an HTTP request — including no-code tools like Zapier and Make — can check in.
How long is run history kept?
Each routine keeps a simple run history so you can see when it last checked in and which runs were late. Exact retention by plan will be stated clearly before public launch — this is early access.
Will this spam me with false alarms?
No. You set a schedule plus a grace period for normal variation, and maintenance windows for planned downtime. Healthy runs stay silent — you only hear about a real miss, once, with the routine name and the time it was expected.
What data do you store?
Only the check-in signal and timestamps — the routine name you choose and when it pinged. RoutineSignal never touches the contents of your backups, exports, or jobs.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Plans are month to month and you can cancel anytime. Join early access now and we'll email your check-in link as soon as your account is ready — no credit card required to get on the list.
Know when routine work stops.
RoutineSignal confirms that recurring work ran and sends a clear alert when a backup, export, report, or workflow misses its check-in.
