8 tools · the Catch, not a ranking

ntfyHTTP pub-sub notifications you can curl from cron
Anonymous topics are passwords — guessable names leak other people's alerts. Public ntfy.sh rate-limits; reserved topics need Pro. Dual license means you pick Apache-2.0 or GPLv2, not Apache-only.
NovuMIT notification workflows with a real 0 USD Cloud
The default GitHub branch is next, and GET /LICENSE there 404s. Open-core: enterprise/, apps/web/src/ee, and apps/dashboard/src/ee are commercial. Self-hosted deployment on the pricing page sits under Enterprise. Free Cloud caps 10K runs, 20 workflows, 24h retention.
GotifyMIT self-host push server; Android-first, no ntfy.sh twin
No public hosted twin like ntfy.sh. Android-first client, not a public pub-sub host. Distinct from ntfy (public ntfy.sh + dual license) and Apprise (CLI fan-out, no inbox).

BYO APNs+FCM on Cloudflare Workers — not ntfy/Gotify self-host pub/sub, not Novu workflow orchestration. Server is AGPL; pitch self-host or Hosted Free caps. Distinct from ntfy, Gotify, and Novu.
ShoveMIT end-to-end Go device-push relay
Edgepush server is AGPL; Shove is MIT end-to-end Go. Device-push relay — not ntfy/Gotify general pub/sub, not Novu multi-channel workflows. Distinct from Edgepush, ntfy, Gotify, and Novu.
KnockHosted notification workflows; Developer free to 10k messages/mo
Closed-source SaaS — not Novu MIT self-host. LOUD: Starter jumps to $250/mo (50k messages). Downstream SendGrid/Twilio/etc still bill you. HIPAA/SAML/SCIM are Enterprise. Free path is Developer tier only.
OneSignalMulti-channel messaging SaaS; Free now capped at 1k mobile MAU
Closed SaaS. LOUD (2026): Free mobile push/in-app limited to 1,000 MAU (new orgs Sep 1, existing Oct 1) — overage pauses mobile until Growth (from about $19/mo + per-MAU). Not Novu/Knock twins. SMS/RCS extra.

Closed SaaS — not Novu self-host. LOUD: Startup jumps to $249/mo (50k deliveries; $0.0025 overage). Multi-channel = multi-delivery counts. You still pay SendGrid/Twilio/FCM underneath. Not Knock twin for complex workflow DAGs.
