About Tickstem
What is Tickstem?
Tickstem is an infrastructure platform for autonomous AI agents that operate in production. It provides a suite of tools—including agent scheduling, heartbeat monitoring, dependency monitoring, and email verification—all manageable through a single API key. Built for developers using Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot, Tickstem ensures your agents run reliably without constant supervision.
Who is Tickstem for?
Tickstem is designed for developers and teams building or deploying AI agents that need to perform recurring tasks, track their own health, and manage budgets. It's ideal for production-grade agent setups where uptime and oversight are critical. If you're running agent workflows that require fail-safe scheduling and spend controls, Tickstem offers the plumbing to keep everything running smoothly.
Real use cases
Use Tickstem to schedule recurring agent jobs like daily reports, data syncs, or automated testing. Set up heartbeats to get alerted if an agent stops responding, and monitor dependencies to avoid dead endpoints. With email verification, agents can validate addresses before sending, reducing bounce rates and protecting your sender reputation.
Who is it not for?
Tickstem is not a general-purpose workflow automation tool—it's specifically for developers who manage AI agent infrastructure. If you're looking for a no-code scheduler or a simple cron service without agent-centric features, you might find it more technical than needed.
Key features
- Agent Scheduling — Set reliable cron jobs for recurring agent tasks with execution history, retries, and failure alerts.
- Agent Heartbeat — Ping a URL on each cycle and get alerted the moment your agent stops running.
- Agent Spend Control — Give agents a budget and approval threshold; auto-approve small spends, route larger ones via webhook, with full audit trails.
- Dependency Monitoring — Monitor the APIs and services your agent depends on and get alerted before hitting a dead endpoint.
- Email Verification — Validate emails before your agent acts on them—checks syntax, MX records, and disposable domain detection.
- MCP Server + SDKs — Native integration with Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot, plus Go, Node.js, and Python SDKs.
