PatchPulse watches your Linux VPS for pending updates and emails you only when action is required. On a daily schedule, it connects over SSH, lists upgradable packages, formats the results into a clean HTML summary, and alerts your inbox. No dashboards to babysit, no noisy cron spam—just timely, actionable notifications.

Why it’s a game-changer
Security teams and founders alike lose hours running routine patch checks or, worse, forget them entirely. PatchPulse makes patch hygiene effortless: reliable checks, readable summaries, and zero false alarms when there’s nothing to do.

Key benefits

• Proactive security: Catch pending updates before they become incidents.

• Noise-free: Only emails when updates exist.

• Fast setup: Drop in SSH + SMTP, set your schedule, done.

• Extensible: Add more servers, operating systems, or chat alerts as you grow.

• Ops-friendly: Clear HTML list that anyone can act on.

What’s included

• Daily scheduler, SSH package check, HTML formatter, and email notifier wired end-to-end.

• Guidance for multi-server coverage, key-based SSH, and critical-update highlighting.

• Optional add-ons: Slack/Teams alerts, CVE priority parsing, metrics export, and auto-create maintenance tickets.

Who it’s for
Startups, agencies, and lean DevOps teams that need dependable patch visibility without heavy tooling or platform lock-in.

• Labor replaced: Even at 10 servers × 10 min/day ≈ ~33 hrs/month saved; at $60/hr fully loaded, that’s ~$2,000/month back.

• Risk avoided: One missed critical patch can cost far more in downtime and incident response.

• Scales with you: We’ll extend to multiple OS families and messaging channels as part of the engagement.
