Silverback Alerts proactively monitors your community and notifies you when something unusual happens — a sudden drop in engagement, a wave of members leaving, an unexpected activity spike, and more.

Alert types
Severity levels
Each alert is rated by severity:
- 🔴 Critical — requires immediate attention
- 🟡 Warning — something to watch and address soon
- 🔵 Info — a notable pattern worth knowing about
Running a check
Checks are triggered manually by you. Click Check now on the Alerts page to run a check at any time. The button is rate-limited to once every 4 hours to prevent duplicate alerts.
Resolving alerts
When you’ve addressed an alert or it’s no longer relevant, click the ✕ button to dismiss it. Dismissed alerts move to the Resolved section at the bottom of the page.
Avoiding duplicate alerts
Silverback won’t re-trigger the same alert type within a 12-hour window, so you won’t get spammed if the same condition persists across multiple checks.
