Real-Time
Alert System
In legislative affairs, timing is everything. Configure custom alerts for the events that matter most and receive them through the channels you prefer—email, SMS, push notifications, or in-app.
Your Way, Your Channels
Multi-Channel Delivery
Choose how you receive alerts. Every notification channel can be individually configured with its own preferences, so you get critical updates immediately while routine notifications arrive in a convenient digest.
Email Alerts
Detailed email notifications with bill context, action summaries, and direct links. Choose real-time delivery or batched digests—hourly, daily, or weekly.
SMS Notifications
Get text message alerts for critical updates when you're away from your desk. Perfect for urgent bill movements during active session days.
Push Notifications
Browser and mobile push notifications for instant awareness. See alerts the moment they happen without checking email or opening the app.
In-App Notifications
Real-time notification bell in the app header. See unread alert counts, click through to relevant bills, and mark as read—all without leaving your workflow.
Precision Control
Custom Alert Rules
Not all legislative events are equally important to you. Create custom alert rules that trigger on exactly the events you care about—and assign priority levels so critical updates always stand out.
Event-Based Triggers
Status changes, committee referrals, hearing schedules, floor votes, amendments filed, and more
Keyword Matching
Get alerted when new bills are filed matching your keywords—automatically discover relevant legislation
Priority Classification
Assign Critical, High, Medium, or Low priority to alert rules—critical alerts always break through
Watchlist-Scoped Alerts
Configure alerts per watchlist—different clients can have different alert settings
Fully Configurable
Set your own rules, your own channels, your own schedule—total control over your legislative intelligence
Smart Scheduling
Get alerts when you want them—real-time for critical updates, digests for the rest
Work-Life Balance
Digest Options & Quiet Hours
Not every alert needs to interrupt your day. Choose between real-time delivery and consolidated digests, and set quiet hours so notifications respect your off-time.
Hourly Digests
Consolidated summary of all alerts from the past hour—great during active session days
Daily & Weekly Summaries
Morning briefing emails with everything that happened since your last digest
Quiet Hours
Set do-not-disturb hours for push and SMS—alerts queue up silently until your quiet period ends
Per-Type Configuration
Enable or disable specific alert types independently—bill updates, hearings, votes, keyword matches
