1. Create an Account

Sign up with your email. It's free — no credit card required.

2. Create a Job

In your dashboard, click "New Job" and configure:

• •Name — a human-readable label (e.g. "Nightly DB Backup")
• •Expected Interval — how often the job should run (in minutes)
• •Grace Period — extra time before alerting (in minutes)

3. Ping Your Heartbeat URL

After creating a job, you'll get a unique heartbeat URL. Call it after each successful run:

curl -s https://quietpulse.xyz/ping/your-unique-token

4. Connect Telegram or Webhooks

In your dashboard, you'll see two notification options. Click "Connect Telegram" to link your Telegram bot for direct personal alerts. Or configure "Webhook" to route alerts to your own systems, automation tools, or incident platforms. You can use both simultaneously.

Crontab

Add the ping call at the end of your cron command:

# Backup every hour, ping on success
0 * * * * /usr/local/bin/backup.sh && curl -s https://quietpulse.xyz/ping/TOKEN

# Cleanup daily at 3am
0 3 * * * /usr/local/bin/cleanup.sh && curl -s https://quietpulse.xyz/ping/TOKEN2

Bash Script

#!/bin/bash
set -e

# Your task here
pg_dump mydb > /backups/mydb_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
gzip /backups/mydb_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql

# Ping QuietPulse on success
curl -sf https://quietpulse.xyz/ping/YOUR_TOKEN

Python

import requests

def my_scheduled_task():
    # ... your logic here ...
    pass

if __name__ == "__main__":
    my_scheduled_task()
    requests.get("https://quietpulse.xyz/ping/YOUR_TOKEN")

Node.js

async function runTask() {
  // ... your logic here ...
}

await runTask();
await fetch("https://quietpulse.xyz/ping/YOUR_TOKEN");

What happens if my job fails?

If the ping doesn't arrive within the expected interval + grace period, QuietPulse marks the job as MISSING and sends you an alert via your configured notification channels (Telegram and/or webhook).

Do I need to install anything?

No. QuietPulse works with a simple HTTP GET request. If you have curl, wget, or any HTTP client, you're good to go.

Is it free?

Yes. The free tier includes up to 5 monitored jobs with expected intervals from 1 minute. For higher job limits, see our pricing page.

What notification channels are available?

QuietPulse supports two notification channels: Telegram for direct personal alerts and Webhooks for routing alerts to your own systems, automation tools, or incident management platforms. You can use both simultaneously.
