Ask HN: Roll-Up Notifications as a Service?

1 points by nloui ↗ HN
Hi HN, does anyone know of a service that allows me to push notifications to a central place then manages the users' roll-up preferences for me?

It seems like most services are focused on event-based or marketing notifications but I haven't seen something that will help with a daily/weekly digest format?

Typically implement this as using cron - you have some logic around which users should be sent a message, tracking this in the db, then send the notification when the cron job runs every day or week or whatever.

Yup, totally. Was just curious if someone had made this process just a little bit easier.
