Never get surprised by an expired cert again

Get alerted before your SSL certificates expire

Add your domains once. SSLNudge checks them daily and warns you over email, Slack and webhooks — long before anything breaks.

  • Free for 2 certificates
  • No credit card
  • No agent to install

Check a domain right now

Everything you need to never miss a renewal

Purpose-built for developers and ops teams who’ve been burned by an expired cert.

Daily expiry checks

We open a real TLS connection to every host each day and read the certificate — no agent, no third-party API.

More than just dates

Chain validity, hostname/SAN match, protocol and issuer — caught before your users hit a scary warning.

Alerts that reach you

Email, Slack and generic webhooks. Configurable lead times at 30 / 14 / 7 / 1 days, plus instant failure alerts.

A dashboard you can read

Status colours, an expiry timeline and a status breakdown so you can see everything is healthy at a glance.

Webhooks & Slack

Pipe alerts into your existing incident tooling with an incoming Slack webhook or a JSON webhook of your own.

Boring on purpose

Set it once and forget it. SSLNudge is the quiet safety net that emails you before a cert ever takes a site down.

Frequently asked questions

How does SSLNudge check my certificates?

It opens a TLS connection to each host and reads the certificate the server presents — the same handshake a browser does. We parse the expiry date, issuer, SANs and validate the chain.

Do I need to install anything?

No. SSLNudge checks public endpoints directly over the internet. There’s nothing to install on your servers.

When will I be alerted?

By default at 30, 14, 7 and 1 days before expiry, and immediately when a check newly fails. Lead times are configurable.

Is it really free?

Yes. The free plan covers 2 certificates with daily checks, email and Slack alerts, and API access. No credit card required.
