So, weird product fit, I think? You have to be small enough not to have a real enterprise grade visibility platform (like ThousandEyes or whatever) which will already have that capability, but also have enough legacy not to be fully automated already (e.g. LetsEncrypt, ZeroSSL, CSP integrated certificate management).

Automating with LetsEncrypt doesn't mean your certificates don't expire. It just means the failure case looks different. Typically something gets messed up with the server configuration such that the auto renew doesn't run or it doesn't run successfully.

OK, sure, I guess the "we have automation but it's not something we're checking for function" crowd can benefit.

And not quite together enough to have a prometheus and simple blackbox exporter set up.
