Cron and job watch

Watch the job you already log

Healthchecks expects a ping on a schedule. logs.so expects an event on a channel you already instrumented. If that event stops, Pro can open an incident and email confirmed subscribers.

Where the products overlap

  • An expected rhythm: this job should have run by now
  • A grace period so a late job is not immediately an incident
  • A notice when the rhythm breaks

What logs.so adds

  • No separate ping endpoint is required. Use the events your server already sends
  • The feed shows what did arrive, not only that a heartbeat was missing
  • The same missed rhythm can publish on a public status page
