Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cron format?
Five fields: minute (0-59), hour (0-23), day (1-31), month (1-12), day of week (0-7). Asterisk (*) means "every." Example: 0 9 * * 1 = every Monday at 9:00 AM.
Are next run times accurate?
Yes. Calculated from your timezone and the cron rules. Verify your schedule before deploying to crontab, Kubernetes, AWS, or CI/CD systems.
Compatible with cloud services?
Yes. Works with Linux crontab, AWS EventBridge, Google Cloud Scheduler, Azure Functions, GitHub Actions, and most CI/CD systems. Some need a 6th field for seconds — prepend 0 if required.
All calculations happen in your browser. No data is sent to any server.
