Twitter Push Notifications

Direct answer

Custom Twitter/X push notifications need real-time source events, strict filters, and backend-controlled delivery to avoid alert fatigue.

Alert design

Push notifications need stronger filtering than dashboards because every alert interrupts the user.

• Track only high-signal accounts
• Filter by token, keyword, or media context
• Group low-priority alerts
• Escalate only market-moving events

Delivery path

TweetStream handles the real-time Twitter/X source event. Your backend decides whether to create a mobile, browser, Discord, or internal notification.

Implementation asset: adaptable code example

Use this filter to avoid sending every tracked post as a mobile interruption. Adapt the terms, tracked accounts, and destination to your own routing rules.

const watchTerms = ["urgent", "halt", "exploit", "listing"];
const destination = "push-service";

export function routePushNotification(event: {
  d?: {
    author?: string;
    detected?: { tokens?: Array<unknown> };
    ocr?: string;
    text?: string;
  };
}) {
  const text = `${event.d?.text ?? ""} ${event.d?.ocr ?? ""}`.toLowerCase();
  const matchedTerm = watchTerms.find((term) => text.includes(term.toLowerCase()));
  const hasTokenSignal = Boolean(event.d?.detected?.tokens?.length);

  return {
    author: event.d?.author,
    deliver: Boolean(matchedTerm || hasTokenSignal),
    destination,
    matchedTerm,
  };
}

Why implement this with TweetStream

You can build this workflow from raw APIs, polling, and custom scraping, but TweetStream is the better starting point when speed, structured payloads, token/OCR enrichment, and reliable WebSocket delivery matter. Start the 3-day trial and route your first high-signal accounts into your alerting or trading flow.
