Network controlled PDUs are a thing. I’ve used APC switched rack PDUs several jobs ago to control lab equipment - we had a checkout page and if a unit was not checked out it would be powered off at the end of the day and powered back on if someone checked it out. It was as easy as an API call - could be sent by health check script. Not sure how healthy that is for the circuits vs reset button though - we didn’t have any problems but some consumer hardware might be more delicate.
