TriggerPulse is a self-hosted backend trigger system that prevents your services from going idle.
Free-tier platforms like Render or similar providers often put apps to sleep after inactivity. TriggerPulse solves that by automatically pinging your backend at controlled intervals, ensuring it's always ready when users hit it.

Keeps services alive with scheduled background triggers. -
