Alert channels in v1
- In-app saved-search modules on `/tenant/home`.
- Email digests for active saved searches when enabled by ops.
- Push alerts for saved-search matches (requires browser notification permission).
- Role-safe links back to exact matches.
Frequency behaviour
- Instant: near-real-time, rate-limited.
- Daily: summary of new matches since last send.
- Weekly: wider digest for slower-moving searches.
- Push (saved-search): `Instant` or `Daily digest`.
Push settings (saved searches)
- Open `/tenant/saved-searches` and use **Notification settings**.
- Controls available:
- Enable/disable saved-search push alerts.
- Frequency: `Instant` or `Daily digest`.
- Quiet hours (local timezone) to suppress sends overnight.
- Defaults for new tenants:
- Alerts enabled
- Instant mode
- Quiet hours off
Quiet hours and daily mode
- Quiet hours suppress push sends during your selected window.
- Overnight windows are supported (for example `22:00` to `07:00`).
- Start and end times must be different.
- Daily mode sends at most one saved-search push per local day when new matches exist.
- If no new matches are found, no push is sent.
How to keep alerts useful
- Keep search radius and budget realistic.
- Disable searches that are too broad.
- Rename searches so digest sections are immediately clear.
- Review and pause stale searches monthly.
Disable alerts safely
- Use saved-search settings in app.
- Email digests include a disable link per search.
- If you disabled by mistake, re-enable from saved searches manager.
Common confusion
- “Why no email today?”
- No new matches since your last baseline.
- Alerts may be paused or globally disabled by ops.
- “Why many emails?”
- Multiple active high-volume searches.
- Frequency set to instant for broad filters.
