Your notifications

For employees

Notifications keep you up to date on the few things that need your attention. The platform deliberately keeps the volume low — most days you will see one or two; some days, none.

Where they live

Two places:

  • The bell in the top bar — shows the most recent ten notifications, with an unread count badge if any are unread. Click to open the dropdown.
  • The full notifications page at /{slug}/me/notifications — every notification you have received, with filters by type and read state.

What you might receive

Current notification triggers:

  • Welcome (ONBOARDING) — sent once, when you accept your invitation. Explains where to start.
  • Assessment assigned (ASSESSMENT_ASSIGNED) — sent when HR or your line manager assigns you an assessment.
  • Report ready (REPORT_READY) — sent when a completed assessment's narrative finishes generating.
  • Plan edited (PLAN_EDITED) — sent when HR or your line manager makes a change to your growth plan.
  • Project assigned (PROJECT_ASSIGNED) — sent when you are added to a project team.
  • Project removed (PROJECT_REMOVED) — sent when you are removed from a project team.

You will not receive notifications for:

  • Other people's assessments or plan changes.
  • Workspace-wide announcements or marketing.
  • System maintenance reminders unless they affect you specifically.

What each notification looks like

A small rectangle in the dropdown:

  • A status dot in the corner — gold for unread, transparent for read.
  • The trigger type as a small mono label (ASSESSMENT ASSIGNED).
  • The title in display — Behavioural assessment, deadline in two weeks.
  • A short body — Assigned by Layla Al-Otaibi, 14 minutes ago.

Notifications are display-only — they are for awareness, not navigation. They do not act as clickable links to other surfaces.

Managing notifications

From the bell dropdown:

  • Mark as read — click anywhere outside an individual notification but inside the bell area, and the dropdown's Mark all as read link appears.
  • Open the full archive — See all notifications link at the bottom of the dropdown.

From the full archive:

  • Filter by type — show only assessments-related, only plan-related, etc.
  • Filter by read state — unread only.
  • Mark individual notifications as read by clicking the dot.
  • Delete notifications you no longer need from the archive — useful for keeping the archive scannable. Deletion is per-notification, not bulk in v0.5.

What is not yet available

  • Email notifications. Notifications are in-app only. An email notification channel is on the roadmap.
  • Per-user notification preferences. Every employee receives every notification their role triggers. You cannot opt out of certain types.
  • Push notifications on mobile. No native app, no PWA, no push. The bell is the only channel.
