The problem it solves

SSL certificates quietly expire without warning, and when they do, your website shows a security warning that scares visitors away. You're not checking each certificate manually, so it's easy for one to slip through until customers start complaining.

Who it fits

Business owners or IT staff responsible for keeping company websites running and trusted.

How it works

  1. A weekly schedule kicks off the check
  2. The system reads the list of website addresses from a Google Sheet
  3. Each site's SSL certificate expiry date is checked automatically
  4. An email alert goes out for any certificate nearing its expiry date
What you get

Certificates renewed before they ever lapse

Every week your website certificates get checked automatically, with an email alert sent before any of them expire.

What you get

An early warning email listing which website certificates are about to expire.

What you need

A Google Sheets account and a Gmail account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
