Make one
Use twilio.com. Make a database of phone #s. Record an automated message. Tell them to press 1 if their ok. Wait say 10 seconds. No response? Fire off a text message to yourself. Wrap the whole thing in a cron job to fire off every day at midnight lol (probably a more reasonable 10am) and profit!
