How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs.

The problem it solves

Tracking when SSL certificates expire across your AWS infrastructure means someone has to remember to check, or you find out when a site suddenly stops working. An expired certificate can take down a service and trigger an urgent scramble. You want a standing report, not a fire drill.

Who it fits

DevOps engineers, cloud administrators, and compliance teams managing AWS certificates.

How it works

  1. Once a week, the system pulls every certificate from AWS Certificate Manager
  2. It organizes the status, expiry date, and renewal eligibility for each one
  3. AI writes a summary report, formatted for both a document and a quick-read email
  4. The report is posted to Slack as a file and sent out by email
What you get

Expiring certificates caught before they lapse

You get a weekly report on every AWS certificate's status and expiry date, delivered to Slack and your inbox automatically.

What you get

A weekly certificate status report delivered to Slack and email, showing what's expiring and what needs renewal.

What you need

An AWS account with Certificate Manager access, an OpenAI API key, a Slack workspace, and an email sending 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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
