Last updated
Last updated
The SyncAI Network provides a delivery layer for decentralized push notifications directly to wallet addresses. This feature enables Web3 projects, dApps, smart contracts, or any Web3 services to send real-time notifications to their users through an open, interoperable, and secure network. It boosts and monetizes engagement and retention via personalized notifications.
Step | Component | Description |
1 | Create Channel | A channel is created on the SyncAI Network and registered as a service on SyncID. |
2 | Activate Channel | The channel is activated to define the types of notifications and the data schema. |
3 | Compose Notification | A notification is composed, including the recipient’s wallet address, content, and metadata. |
4 | Sign Notification | The notification is signed using the sender’s private key to ensure integrity and authenticity. |
5 | Validate Notification | Nodes validate the signature and structure of the notification. |
6 | Deliver Notification | Notifications are sent off-chain to the user’s wallet address via the SyncID service layer. |
7 | On-Chain Notification | For smart contract-triggered events, the notification is delivered on-chain, incurring minimal gas fees. |
8 | Receive Notification | Users receive notifications in real-time, directly in their wallet interface or application. |
Note: Since SyncAI network supports notifications, every chat message includes a notification. Even when a chat message is sent to an address, the recipient receives a notification along with the message, provided they have accepted the chat request.
The network prioritizes spam prevention by adopting a user-centric approach:
| Flags | Description |
|---|---|
Whitelisted | Users receive notifications only from protocols they subscribe to. |
Modified | Users can fine-tune which notifications they receive. |
Spam | Unwanted notifications are directed to the user's spam box. |
The core protocol allows the creation of channels that act as services capable of sending notifications to any wallet address. Notifications can also be sent on alias chains using SyncID.
| User Type | Notification Handling |
|---|---|
SyncAI Subscribers | Receive notifications in their inbox. |
Non-Subscribers | See notifications in the spam box. |
