Automated Gab Brand Mention Alerts
Every hour, WebRun checks Gab for a sudden jump in mentions of your brand or hashtag, alerts Slack right away once mentions cross your set threshold, and posts a daily digest of the day's mentions to Telegram.
How do I get alerted when mentions of my brand spike on Gab?
WebRun checks Gab every hour for a sudden jump in mentions of your brand or hashtag. It alerts Slack right away once mentions cross your set threshold and posts a daily digest of total mention volume to Telegram, so a spike in chatter gets noticed the same hour it starts, not days later.
- Mention spikes get flagged the same hour they start
- A daily digest keeps the team current without constant checking
- Quiet hours generate no noise, only real spikes alert Slack
