About
Cronhooks is a webhook scheduling service that triggers HTTP requests at specific dates and times or on recurring intervals using cron expressions. It exposes a REST API for creating ad-hoc and recurring schedules, supports timezone-aware execution, and sends failure alerts by email or Slack.
The free plan includes 5 schedules, ad-hoc schedules only, email failure alerts, email support, unlimited team members, and a 48-hour support response time. A 15-day trial is also listed, with signup allowing up to 5 ad-hoc and recurring schedules during the trial period.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is a capped starter plan: it gives a small but usable slice of the product, but only for ad-hoc scheduling and up to 5 schedules. The cheapest paid plan is $5/month for 100 schedules plus recurring scheduling, so the free tier is roughly 5% of that plan’s practical capacity and is worth about $1.50/month. A credit card is not required, and there is also a 15-day trial, but the ongoing free offer remains limited.
