Abnormal Activity

You receive a notification as soon as the global volume of your Topic significantly increases. This Alert can be configured with a smart or a custom option.

Every Post

You receive a notification as soon as a new post has been published (including a new retweet). It is important to set this Alert up on a Topic with a very low volume to avoid being spammed. We advise you to use filters to focus on specific criteria. For example, you can focus on a specific account or keyword, or on specific communities (journalists, politics, influencers, etc.) to configure this Alert.

Every Article

You receive a notification as soon as a new article is shared on the selected social media.

You receive a notification as soon as a hashtag, a tweet or an article is going viral on your Topic. You have to choose the trigger threshold of the Alert according to your Topic.
