TrustRadius: an HG Insights company

What is Novu?

Novu is an open-source notification infrastructure, built for engineering teams to help them build rich product notification experiences. Novu provides components and APIs for managing all communication channels without the need to create and maintain an in-house notifications infrastructure.

Novu acts as a tool to improve how users communicate by sending notifications. It processes inputs from a product, directs them through Novu workflows, and disseminates notifications across in-app and external channels. Once the necessary API calls are established between the user's system and Novu, even non-technical users can craft and update notification routing and designs more quickly and without relying on engineers.

Novu achieves notification delivery across both in-app and external channels. In the case of in-app channels, Novu offers pre-built components for promptly embedding a fully functional notification feed into an application. As for external channels, Novu integrates with existing providers – whether email, push, SMS services, or platforms like Slack and Apple Push Notification Service.
