Risk Alerts
A Risk Alert is a rule that SIGNLD watches for you. Instead of asking the same question every Monday, you define the condition once on a Decision Topic and SIGNLD tells you when it is crossed, with the same sourcing and lineage a Decision Brief carries.
How it works
- A rule states a measurable condition, for example gross margin at any location falls below 32 percent for two consecutive weeks.
- The rule is evaluated after each refresh of the underlying sources.
- When it fires, SIGNLD produces a Brief explaining what moved, which entities are involved, and what changed since the last evaluation.
- On Growth and above, a firing rule can also send an action trigger to Slack, Teams, email, or a webhook.
How to use it
- Convert your recurring checks first. Anything you ask weekly is a candidate.
- Set thresholds where you would actually act, not where the number looks interesting.
- Give each alert an owner. Alerts without owners get muted.
Risk Alert FAQ
How often are Risk Alerts evaluated?
After each refresh of the sources the rule depends on, so cadence follows your plan: manual or weekly on Free, and daily automated refresh on Growth and above.
Can an alert do something in another system?
Yes, with integrations. Action triggers send notifications on Growth and above, and agent handoff can issue a task into HR, CRM, PSA, or ITSM systems on Business and above.
Do alerts consume credits?
Alert evaluation runs on the syncs you already pay for. The Brief an alert produces consumes credits like any Decision Brief.
