How do I get warned before a domain or SSL certificate expires?
WebRun watches your DNSimple portfolio every morning. It reads each domain's expiry date and auto renew setting, checks SSL certificate end dates, drafts a Gmail digest sorted by days remaining, and posts anything expiring within 30 days to Slack, so no name or certificate ever lapses unnoticed.
- Expiring domains surface 30 days out, not on the day they drop
- Domains with auto renew off are called out for a human to fix
- Certificate end dates get checked daily without anyone remembering to look

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it renew or buy domains on its own?
No. WebRun only reads expiry dates and settings in DNSimple. It never renews a domain, changes auto renew, or spends money. Every renewal stays a human decision.
Does it send the email itself?
No. The Gmail summary is left in Drafts for you to review and send. Only the internal Slack post goes out automatically, because that stays inside your team.
How early does it warn me?
It flags anything expiring within 30 days by default, and you can set a longer runway. Domains with auto renew switched off are called out separately because those need a human.
