Your jobs ping our unique URLs when they run successfully. If we don't receive a ping within your defined schedule window, we immediately send an alert. This catches both failed executions and jobs that don't run at all. ### What alert channels are supported? Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, SMS, and custom webhooks. You can configure different channels for different severity levels and set up escalation rules. ### Can I monitor webhooks from third-party services? Absolutely! Seiri works with any system that can make HTTP requests. Monitor payment webhooks (Stripe, PayPal), CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI), scheduled reports, data syncs, and more. If it can ping a URL, Seiri can monitor it. ### Is there an API for programmatic access? Yes! Our REST API allows you to create monitors, retrieve statistics, manage alerts, and integrate Seiri into your existing tools and workflows. Full documentation is available for all endpoints. ### How secure is my monitoring data? Security is our top priority. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Each monitor gets a unique, unguessable URL. We're SOC 2 compliant and regularly undergo security audits. Your monitoring data is completely isolated between accounts. ### What happens if Seiri goes down? We have 99.99% uptime SLA with automatic failover across multiple regions. Our infrastructure is self-monitoring with redundancy. In the unlikely event of an outage, we have automated failover systems and will notify customers immediately. ### Can I migrate from other monitoring services? Yes! We provide migration guides for popular services like Healthchecks.io, Cronitor, and UptimeRobot. Our support team can help with bulk imports and configuration. ### Do you offer a free trial? Yes! All paid plans come with a 14-day free trial, no credit card required. The free tier is available indefinitely for small projects. ### What's your refund policy? We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all paid plans. If you're not satisfied, we'll refund your payment, no questions asked. ### Can I use Seiri for compliance requirements? Yes! Seiri is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant. We provide audit logs, uptime reports, and compliance documentation. Enterprise plans include additional compliance features and SLAs. ## Comparisons ### Seiri vs Healthchecks.io - **Seiri**: Modern UI, better analytics, more alert channels, team collaboration - **Healthchecks**: Open source option available - **Winner**: Seiri for teams, Healthchecks for self-hosted ### Seiri vs Cronitor - **Seiri**: Lower pricing, cleaner interface, faster setup - **Cronitor**: More advanced features, longer history - **Winner**: Seiri for simplicity, Cronitor for enterprise complexity ### Seiri vs UptimeRobot - **Seiri**: Specialized for jobs/webhooks, better for developers - **UptimeRobot**: Website monitoring focus - **Winner**: Different use cases (jobs vs websites) ### Seiri vs PagerDuty - **Seiri**: Focused on job monitoring, simpler, much cheaper - **PagerDuty**: Full incident management platform - **Winner**: Seiri for job monitoring, PagerDuty for comprehensive incident management ### Support Channels - **Email**: hello@seiri.app (24-48 hour response) - **Documentation**: https://seiri.app/blog - **Status Page**: https://seiri.app - **Community**: Discord server (coming soon) ### Enterprise Support - Dedicated account manager - Priority email support (4-hour response) - Slack/Teams channel with engineering - Custom SLA agreements - On-call phone support ## Roadmap ### Recently Shipped - Multi-channel alerting - Advanced analytics dashboard - Team collaboration features ### Coming Soon (Q3 2026) - SOC 2 Type II certification - API v1 public release - Mobile apps (iOS/Android) - Status pages for public monitors - Incident management workflows - Advanced scheduling (timezone support) - Webhook payload inspection ### Future (Q4 2027) - Log aggregation and searching - Custom dashboards and widgets - Machine learning anomaly detection - Integration marketplace - White-label options ## Developer Resources ### SDKs & Libraries work in progress ### CLI Tool work in progress ### Webhook Payload ```json { "event": "check.failed", "monitor": { "id": "mon_abc123", "name": "Daily Backup", "schedule": "0 2 * * *" }, "timestamp": "2025-01-15T02:00:00Z", "message": "Expected ping not received within 5 minutes of scheduled time", "severity": "critical", "duration_missed": "5m" } ``` ## SEO Keywords ### Primary Keywords - webhook monitoring - cron job monitoring - scheduled task monitoring - job failure alerts - background task monitoring ### Secondary Keywords - webhook monitoring tool - cron monitoring service - job monitoring software - task scheduler monitoring - uptime monitoring for jobs - heartbeat monitoring - dead man's switch monitoring ### Long-tail Keywords - how to monitor cron jobs - webhook failure notifications - monitor scheduled tasks in production - get alerts for failed cron jobs - monitor background jobs - cron job uptime monitoring - webhook monitoring with Slack alerts ### Industry-Specific - DevOps monitoring tools - SRE monitoring solutions - developer monitoring platform - infrastructure monitoring - application monitoring for jobs - microservices health monitoring ## Legal & Compliance ### Terms of Service https://seiri.app/terms ### Privacy Policy https://seiri.app/privacy - GDPR compliant - CCPA compliant - Data processing agreement available ### Security https://seiri.app/security - Vulnerability disclosure program - Regular security audits - Penetration testing - Bug bounty program (Enterprise) ### Service Level Agreement (SLA) - Free: No SLA - Developer: 99.5% uptime - Pro: 99.9% uptime - Enterprise: 99.99% uptime with custom terms ## Company Information ### About Seiri Seiri was founded in 2024 by developers frustrated with complex monitoring solutions.
