How it works
Set up once, send in seconds
About fifteen minutes from zero to the first notification on a real device.
Upload your keys
Your APNs key for iOS and your Firebase service account for Android. OtaKit tests them with Apple and Google right away.
Push → Setup
Register devices
Add the official Capacitor plugin and a small helper that sends the device token to OtaKit, with your user ID and topics.
npm i @otakit/push
Send
Pick an audience, check the device count, and send. Delivery counts and errors show up per campaign.
otakit push send
The code
A few lines in your app, one command to send
In your app
import { PushNotifications } from '@capacitor/push-notifications';
import { OtaKitPush } from '@otakit/push';
OtaKitPush.init({ appId: 'YOUR_OTAKIT_APP_ID' });
PushNotifications.addListener('registration', ({ value }) => {
OtaKitPush.syncToken(value, { userId: user?.id ?? null, topics: ['news'] });
});
const { receive } = await PushNotifications.requestPermissions();
if (receive === 'granted') await PushNotifications.register();From your terminal or CI
otakit push send \ --title "Your order shipped" \ --body "Track it in the app" \ --url /orders --user user_42
Or use the dashboard, the REST API from your backend, or ask your AI agent through the OtaKit CLI.
What you get
The parts you would otherwise build yourself
Targeting
Send to everyone, one platform, topics your users subscribe to, your own user IDs, or the OTA channel a device is on.
Deep links
Attach a path like /orders/42. Your app opens the right screen when the user taps the notification.
Token cleanup
Tokens Apple or Google report as invalid are removed automatically, so your device count stays honest.
Safe sending
You see the exact audience before sending, idempotency keys stop double sends, and every send is in the audit log.
Your keys, your projects
Delivery runs through your own Apple and Firebase accounts. Keys are encrypted at rest and removable at any time.
Agent and CLI ready
Send from the command line, from CI, or let an AI agent draft the message and ask you before it goes out.
