Show HN: I created a tool to schedule HTTP requests

In my last project, I was struggling to create and monitor cron jobs.

So, instead of creating hundreds of standalone scrips and executing them with cron, I decided to turn those scripts into multiple endpoints. Next, I created a single service that I could schedule HTTP requests to those endpoints and monitor its execution. No more scripts, now everything is endpoints that I can run manually at any time

I turned this scheduler service into a Micro-SaaS so you don't have to build it yourself: beew.io

I know you can Schedule HTTP requests with Zapier but come on... I will not pay 50 bucks for that hahahaha

btw, feedbacks are welcome.

I was Just thinking to build something like this today! is the code open source?

None, I think hahahaha.

I'm slowly adding more features and writing documentation. For now, it's just a cheaper and simpler option.

@caiorolla, if you want to research, there's also https://cron-job.org and https://cronhub.io/.

You can schedule HTTP requests with cron and curl. You don’t have to use Zapier or any other app. With a little Apache magic you can limit the IP addresses or host names allowed to make API requests.

For monitoring sites by pinging them or periodically checking a status page you can find many services. I use Uptime Robot for multiple clients.
