  "price": "Free Hacker: 5 monitors, 5-minute checks, 1 status page, 1 user. Business $2/mo per monitor plus $5/mo per extra user, 12-month retention. 14-day trial.",
  "tier": "mixed",
  "pick": false,
  "what": "Monitoring for the things that fail silently: cron jobs, background workers, queues and scheduled tasks, alongside conventional uptime and API checks. Jobs ping a URL on start and finish, and Cronitor alerts when a run is late, fails or takes too long. Cloud-only.",
  "why": "Nothing else here tells you the nightly backup script quietly stopped running three weeks ago, and a one-line curl in the crontab is the entire integration.",
  "warn": "The free plan is 5 monitors at 5-minute resolution with email and Slack alerts only. SMS, 30-second checks and PagerDuty or Opsgenie integrations all start at the paid tier.",
  "install": "pip install cronitor",
