Alerts & Reports

Score alerts

Score alerts are generated each day after the daily scoring run. They fire when a brand's AI visibility changes significantly:

The Citation Source Lost alert only fires for supporting sources — sites that consistently appeared alongside your brand over the prior two weeks. Sites that never co-occurred with your brand are treated as background noise and ignored.

Each detector has its own minimum data window and cooldown so the same finding doesn't page you twice. Detectors that need a week of history stay quiet until that history exists.

Every alert ships with a Suggested action line: a short, specific next step (which page to open, which competitor to study, which content to produce). It appears as a column on the Alerts page and as a "Suggested action: …" line in the email and push notification.

Severity levels

News & Social alerts

Generated daily from brand news monitoring. An AI analyses recent activity and raises alerts for genuinely significant developments:

Each alert carries a source badge: Brave (news article), X (verified post on X/Twitter), Brave + X (both confirmed it), or Unknown for older alerts. X coverage is opt-in per brand: ask support to enable it for verticals where X breaks news first (tech, finance, sports, breaking PR).

To avoid noise, each candidate alert is checked by a lightweight LLM against this brand's alerts from the recent past. If the same underlying story was already flagged (even if rephrased or from a different source), the candidate is skipped. Otherwise the alert is created and tagged with a canonical story key. Use Collect Now on a brand page to trigger an immediate run.

Notification preferences

Configure your preferences from Profile (click your avatar in the top bar).

Alert Email — optionally set a different email address for alert notifications. Leave blank to use your account email.

The profile page shows a matrix of toggles for each alert type and delivery channel:

Each toggle is independent — you can receive critical alerts by push only, warnings by email only, or any combination.

Daily digest — when enabled, a single summary is sent each morning once the daily score run completes, with all unread alerts grouped by brand.

Immediate notifications — sent as soon as an alert is created (during the daily score pipeline or the morning news collection run).

Team members (subscriber, agency, and admin roles) receive alerts for all brands in their team. Brand users receive alerts for their own brand only.

Push notifications

Achtung.app supports Web Push notifications on devices where the app is installed as a PWA (Progressive Web App).

How to enable:

1. Install the PWA — visit Achtung.app in your browser and use "Add to Home Screen" (iOS Safari) or "Install App" (Chrome/Edge).
2. Connect the device — go to your Profile page and click Enable push on this device. Your browser will prompt for permission — tap Allow.
3. Configure — toggle which alert types should send push notifications in the Push column.

Push subscriptions are per-device. Enable them on each device where you want to receive alerts.

Requirements: iOS 16.4+, Android (Chrome/Edge/Firefox), or Desktop (Chrome/Edge/Firefox). The PWA must be installed and the notification permission granted.

• Market News Signal — Recent industry news headline from automated news monitoring (if available)
• AI Strategic Insights — LLM-generated strategic insight cards with specific recommended actions
• Keyword Performance — Per-keyword citation rates, provider breakdown, sentiment distribution, mention types, and sample AI response contexts
• GEO Gap Analysis — Why AI models are not citing the brand, with specific gap reasons per keyword
• Competitor Landscape — Top domains cited alongside the brand, with tier classification
• Citation Source Map — External domains most frequently cited by AI models, ranked by opportunity score
• Content Suggestions — AI-generated content topics to improve visibility
• Score History — Monthly score trend over the last 6 months

Language: Reports respect the brand's language setting. All headings, labels, dates, and the executive summary are rendered in the brand's language. Supported: English, German, Dutch, French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese.

Reports are available for download from the Reports section. All historical reports are kept permanently.

If a brand's score is recalculated after a report was generated, a warning badge appears on the affected score in the report list. The PDF itself is a point-in-time snapshot.
