Use cases

Keep services warm

Ping serverless endpoints before the first real request. Avoid cold starts on Lambda, Cloudflare Workers, and other scale-to-zero platforms.

Health checks

Call a status URL every minute and see latency over time. Catch outages before your users do.

Trigger ETL jobs

Kick off nightly data pulls, report generation, or batch exports on a schedule — no separate scheduler infrastructure.

Replay webhooks

Send traffic into your HookDeploy endpoints on a schedule. Test integrations without waiting for real events.
