Alerts
Alerts that fit the tools you already run on
Downtime alerts across seven channels, programmable webhook payloads, and delivery you can trust. Tallwatch turns incident alerting into a page the right people get, in the right place, exactly once.
Seven channels
Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, and signed webhooks.
Programmable payloads
Shape every webhook with a custom payload template. No fixed JSON to wrestle with.
Only when it is real
Alerts fire on a confirmed multi-region incident, deduplicated per event and channel so nothing pages twice.
Test before you trust
Send a test alert to any channel before a real incident ever fires.
Delivery
The right people.
Exactly once.
Connect your channels, shape the payload, and route it through your policies. Pages fire only on a confirmed multi-region incident, deduplicated per event so nothing pages twice and nothing gets lost.
Connect your channels
Add a channel in a click: Slack, Discord, Telegram, Teams, PagerDuty, email, or a signed webhook.
Shape the payload
The webhook channel ships a payload-template editor, so downstream gets exactly the JSON it expects.
Route through policies
Channels attach to escalation policies, so the right people hear about the incidents that matter to them.
Delivered exactly once
Dedup per event and retries with backoff mean one alert per event, even when a channel briefly fails.
