Cron for your API — without the cron server.

Health checks, data syncs, scheduled audits, daily reports. Run any request, collection, workflow, or browser test on a schedule — entirely on your machine.

Rostyman scheduler tab listing multiple scheduled jobs with their next run time, last status, and pause toggles

Why this is different

Most API clients stop at sending requests manually. Hosted monitoring services are cron, but they require uploading your entire collection, credentials, and response history to a stranger. Rostyman runs cron locally — your laptop, your server, your data center. No leakage, no subscription.

Cron-based scheduling

Write cron expressions directly, pick a human-friendly preset, or describe a schedule in plain English and let the AI convert it.

Cron expression

0 */15 * * *

Full 5-field cron syntax — every 15 minutes, at 3am daily, weekdays at 9am. Type any valid cron or let the AI convert plain English.

Interval presets

Every 5 minutes

Human-friendly presets — every 1, 5, 15, 30 minutes, hourly, every 6 or 12 hours, daily, or weekly. Pick one and you’re done.

Retry on failure

Configurable max retries (up to 5). Re-runs automatically after a short delay if the previous attempt failed.

Failure alerts

Desktop notification the moment a run fails. No dashboards to babysit.

Timezones

Runs in the zone you pick — not your server's UTC clock.

What you get

Schedule any saved request, collection, folder, or browser test

Retry on failure with configurable max attempts (up to 5)

Desktop notification on failed runs — bring the toolbox back

Per-schedule environment selection

Timezone picker — runs in your team’s zone, not server UTC

Full run history — start time, duration, status, and error per run

Pause / resume individual schedules without deleting them

Soft-delete: removed schedules go to Trash, restorable for 30 days

Set it and forget it. Locally.

Your scheduler runs even when Rostyman is minimized to the tray.
