What developers are saying

"The real value is the one-line instrumentation. Anything that reduces cognitive load for solo devs wins."

— SaaS Content Writer

"I'd pay for it. I had to set up Twilio just to monitor course openings for my daughter. This would have been so much simpler."

— Product Hunt User

"This is VERY needed. Not for errors, but for event notifications. The Twilio nonsense was a pain."

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work outside the US? ▼

Yes! Works in 200+ countries via Twilio. You'll receive SMS wherever you are.

What if I spam myself with alerts? ▼

Built-in rate limiting: same message within 5 mins = sent once. Max 10 unique messages per 5-min window.

Will this crash my app if it fails? ▼

No. The SDK catches all errors and fails silently. Alerting should never break your app.

Why not just use Sentry/PagerDuty? ▼

Different tools. Sentry = comprehensive error monitoring. This = "wake me up for THIS specific thing."

Can I send to multiple phone numbers? ▼

Multi-recipient support coming this week! You'll be able to alert teams/families.

What about email/Slack instead of SMS? ▼

Email support launching this week (free, unlimited). Slack/Discord webhooks next week.

How is this different from ntfy.sh? ▼

ntfy.sh requires setup (topics, app install). This is one line of code. Trade-off: simplicity vs self-hosting.

What if SMS costs are too high in my country? ▼

Email alerts will be unlimited and free. Use SMS for critical alerts only.
