How price alerts work

When and how SprueSentry notifies you.


SprueSentry scans marketplaces on a schedule. Every 15 minutes on Free, every 3 minutes on Pro. When an active watch finds a listing at or below its target, you get both an email and an in-app alert.

No duplicate pings

Each specific listing only ever alerts you once. If the same kit is still up on the next scan, we won't ping you again, so your inbox stays signal, not noise.

Why speed matters

Good kits sell in minutes. On Pro, a 3-minute cadence is often the difference between the buy and the one that got away.
