Notifications

The right alert, at the right time

In-app, email, and SMS notifications with configurable rules per event type. Escalation ensures nothing gets missed.

Multi-Channel Delivery

In-app, email, and SMS notifications today. Push notifications coming soon. Choose the right channel for each event type.

Priority Levels

Low, normal, high, and urgent priorities. Urgent notifications bypass quiet hours.

Escalation Rules

Configurable escalation with intervals and channel progression when initial notifications go unacknowledged.

Quiet Hours

Set start and end times per user. Urgent alerts still come through when needed.

Per-Role Targeting

Define which roles receive each notification type. Technicians get field alerts, dispatchers get scheduling updates.

Retry & Batch Processing

Failed notifications are retried automatically with configurable intervals. Batch processing prevents flooding.

Advanced Twilio Integration

Pro

Enterprise plan includes voice calls with recording and transcription, marketing call attribution with tracking numbers, A2P 10DLC compliance, and metered usage billing. SMS is available on all plans.
