Continuously verify your backups actually work and simulate disaster recovery for your self-hosted infrastructure.
Added Jan 13, 2026

Homelab users cobble together complex backup solutions (TrueNAS, rclone, Backblaze) but lack automated ways to verify restore integrity, monitor health, or test disaster recovery plans. This creates a false sense of security—backups may be corrupted or misconfigured, only discovered during actual data loss events. Users manually check replication status and hope their 3-2-1 strategy works, with no proof until it's too late.
A self-hosted tool that orchestrates backup jobs across multiple targets, automatically tests restore integrity on schedule, monitors RAID/SMART/UPS health, and runs simulated disaster recovery drills. Provides a unified dashboard and alerts for any issues, ensuring your 3-2-1 backup strategy actually works when needed. Includes simplified remote agents for backing up non-technical family members to your NAS.
The shift away from corporate cloud services, Windows 10 EOL pushing users to self-hosting, and rising ransomware threats are making robust backup verification critical. Current tools are either enterprise-focused or require manual scripting, leaving a gap for automated validation in the homelab space.
