In-app inbox
A feed that updates live
Every notification can also appear in an in-app inbox that updates the moment you send.

The right people, at the right time
Send to one user, one device, a set of tags or everyone, now or on a schedule.
How it works
Live in three steps.

Pick the region closest to your users. You get a public key, a secret key and a host.
- 2
Add two lines
One script tag for the browser SDK and a one-line service worker. Subscribe from a click.
- 3
Send from your server
Target a user, a device, tags or everyone. Retries and stats are handled for you.

Browser and in-app
Reach users in Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari, and in an in-app inbox that updates live, from one API.
Set up in minutes
One script tag for the browser SDK and a one-line service worker. That is the whole install.
Send to anyone
Target one user, one device, a set of tags, or everyone at once.
Scheduled sends

What is Hive Push?
Hive Push sends notifications to your users' browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari) and to an in-app inbox that updates live, all from one API.
How do I add it to my site?
Add one script tag for the browser SDK and a one-line service worker that loads the Hive Push worker script. Then send from your server to a user, a device, tags or everyone.
Can someone subscribe as another user?
No. User tokens are signed by your own server, so only the users you sign in can subscribe as themselves.
Are notifications encrypted?
Yes. Messages are encrypted end to end to the browser with standard Web Push encryption.
Does it work with iOS and Android apps?
Native iOS and Android apps are coming soon, using your own Apple and Firebase keys.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free Tier includes 2 apps, 10,000 devices and 50,000 sends a day in each region. A one-time $1 card check is required to start.
Where does my app run?
In the region you pick when you create it: Global (Frankfurt), United States (Los Angeles), Germany, Portugal, Singapore, Tokyo or Hong Kong. Each app lives in one region.
