Looking for a waterproof alert button that can transmit an alert to email or text

Edit - thanks to u/confuzedas down there who let me know that Wyze cameras will alert to lack of motion and that is perfect. When I originally put a camera a couple years back in my CNC that was not an option!

Wyze Camera on its way.

I am trying to rig an alert system to my CNC machine at work, what I am trying to do is have an alert sent to my phone through text or email when the program is finished. That way I can drive into work and start the next program.

There are lots of super expensive and infrastructure-y ways of doing this but I need something quick and dirty for now.

All I want is a button that is waterproof (will be constantly splashed with coolant) that when you press it it will transmit an email or text.

Hell I can probably make a housing of some type that will make it waterproof, so that’s not a hard requirement.

Any thoughts? As simple and dumb “push button, send email” as possible.
