Alert fatigue is real

If every mention becomes an alert, teams stop trusting the system. SENTINEL is designed to make alert quality part of the product.

  • Email for standard news mentions
  • Slack for team awareness
  • SMS reserved for relevant critical alerts

Local races need nuance

A local outlet, committee mention, or issue story may matter more than a generic national clip. Campaign context decides the difference.

Recipients stay in control

Client admins can manage alert settings, delivery channels, recipients, and severity thresholds while Sapphire admins retain operational visibility into delivery and source health.

Example workflow

From mention to next step

Step 1

Monitor the right terms

Track candidate names, opponents, committees, local issues, offices, districts, and source-specific terms.

Step 2

Route by urgency

Keep low-confidence mentions in the dashboard, send standard clips by email or Slack, and reserve SMS for relevant critical alerts.

Step 3

Move to response

Give the campaign a clear view of what changed, why it matters, and what to do next.
