## Alerts That Reach the Right People, Everywhere

A growing channel lineup, smart routing, zero noise

### Growing Channel Lineup

Live today: email, Slack, Telegram, Discord, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Mattermost, Rocket.Chat, ntfy, Gotify, Pushover, Pushbullet, Zapier and webhooks. Rolling out next: SMS, Jira and more.

### Chat, On-Call & ITSM

Slack, Discord and Teams for chat, PagerDuty and Opsgenie for paging, webhooks and Zapier to plug into anything — with built-in on-call schedules and escalations. SMS and ticketing integrations are on the way.

### Webhooks for Anything

Webhooks send a structured JSON payload your system can act on, so you can integrate anything not on the list — including Zapier.

### Enriched, Actionable Alerts

Not just 'something broke' — the monitor, the failing condition, a plain-language diagnosis, the confirming locations, and a link straight to the incident.

### Smart Routing, No Restarts

Routes decide which incidents go to which channels, and you can change routing live — with no restart and no downtime.

### Contact Groups

Decide who each channel reaches by attaching one or more contact groups, so the right people are notified for the right things.

### Protected Fallback Channels

A built-in Email channel is wired to your account and protected, so you always have a working fallback path that can't be deleted by accident.

### Duplicate Detection

WatchFor flags duplicate channels with a friendly warning, so you never accidentally wire the same destination twice.

## Why Route Alerts Through WatchFor?

An alert is only useful if it reaches the right person, in the right place, with enough context to act. WatchFor delivers to 16 channels today — email, Slack, Telegram, Discord, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Teams, ntfy, push apps and webhooks — with SMS and ITSM integrations rolling out, and every alert is enriched with the monitor, the diagnosis, the confirming locations and a direct link to the incident. Routing decides who hears about what, and you can change it live without a restart. Protected fallback channels mean you're never left without a path.

## How Alerting Integrations Work

Add a channel, attach who it reaches, route incidents

1

### Add a Channel

Pick a type — Slack, Discord, a webhook, and so on — and provide its details, such as a webhook URL or a phone number.

2

### Attach Contact Groups

Decide who the channel reaches by attaching one or more contact groups.

3

### Set Routes

Configure which incidents go to which channels with routes — by severity, monitor, and more.

4

### Get Enriched Alerts

Incidents reach the right people with full context, plus recovery notifications. Adjust routing anytime, live.

## Alerting Integration Use Cases

However your team likes to be paged

### On-Call Paging

Page whoever is on call through PagerDuty, Opsgenie or their personal methods (Telegram, Pushover, ntfy, Gotify, Pushbullet) — with full context, escalation levels and a link straight to the incident. On-call schedules are built in.

### Team Chat Alerts

Drop alerts into the Slack or Discord channels your team already watches, so problems surface where people are looking.

### ITSM & Ticketing

Feed incidents into your ticketing flow today with the signed webhook payload or Zapier; native Jira, ServiceNow and Zendesk channels are on the way.

### Custom Automation

Use webhooks (or Zapier) to trigger your own systems — auto-remediation, dashboards, on-call schedules — from a structured incident payload.
