Deadcheck is an automated dead man’s switch that operates independently of its hosting infrastructure. Users can set up checks that must be periodically confirmed, triggering alerts or actions if not confirmed within the specified time. Deadcheck utilizes external services for final triggers, ensuring functionality even if the hosting infrastructure is down. This decoupling from hosting infrastructure allows for flexible check intervals and provider-agnostic setup. Integration with third parties like PagerDuty handles alerts, and the system supports various platforms. A unique feature includes snoozing notifications on successful check-ins until the next expected deadline. Installation and configuration are straightforward, making Deadcheck a versatile and reliable tool.
