Notifications

Get alerted when model prices move, providers go down or come back, and new free models appear.

UnoRouter alerts you in real time when a watched model's price changes, when it goes offline or comes back, and when free models appear or disappear. Alerts arrive over a live connection while the site is open, and via browser push when it is closed.

Everything is device-scoped: no account is required, and your watch list lives in your browser.

Every model surface has a watch action: the bell in the navbar, the row menu in the model list, and the Watch button on a model's detail page and quick-view sheet.

Watch button in the model quick-view sheet

The bell's Watched tab also accepts any model name as free text, including models that are currently offline or no longer listed, so you get pinged the moment one comes back.

Watched tab of the notification bell

A watch may contain one * wildcard matching any run of characters, so a single entry covers a whole model family, including models that do not exist yet.

glm-* glm-*:free *-coder:free

glm-*:free covers every current and future free GLM twin, while *-coder:free matches all free coder models.

With a tab open you get a toast, an optional notification sound, and an unread counter in the bell and the tab title, like a messenger.

The inbox keeps this session's alerts and clears on reload. Clicking an alert opens the model's detail page.

Notification inbox with live model alerts

The Browser notifications switch in the bell enables system notifications: banners while the window is in the background, and web push delivery when the browser is fully closed. Each device opts in separately.

Brave desktop needs "Use Google services for push messaging" enabled for closed-browser delivery. On iOS, add the site to your home screen first, since Safari only delivers push to installed web apps.

A watch covers these events:

EventFires when
Model back onlineA watched model has at least one live provider again
Model unavailableAll providers serving a watched model went down
Price changeThe cheapest provider group's rate moved up or down
New modelA model joins the catalog; the New free models switch covers every :free model automatically
Model removedA model leaves the catalog entirely

Price alerts track the cheapest provider group. To lock a model to specific groups instead, see Group Pinning
