# Notifications overview

Notifications Studio turns platform events into tenant-scoped alerts with
explainable routing and deterministic outputs.

Core capabilities
- Rules engine for event matching, VEX gating, throttles, and digests.
- Channel connectors (Slack, Teams, Email, Webhook, Console).
- Deterministic templates and locale-aware rendering.
- Delivery ledger for audit and replay.

Operational model
- Notify.Worker evaluates rules per event and tenant.
- Actions are idempotent; throttles and digests are recorded.
- API access uses notify.viewer, notify.operator, notify.admin scopes.

Offline posture
- Offline kits ship rules, templates, and plugins.
- No external SaaS required for core delivery.
