You missed a deadline because the reminder email landed in your spam folder. Or because you get so many emails that one more got ignored. Or because you saw it, thought “I’ll handle that later,” and forgot.
Sound familiar?
Compliance notifications exist for one reason: to make sure deadlines are impossible to miss. But notifications only work if they fit how you actually work. Some people want a single weekly digest. Others want daily reminders starting 90 days out. We let you configure what works for you.
Notification channels Type Channel Best for Email Your inbox Primary notifications Push Mobile app Urgent items when you’re away from your desk In-app Dashboard Always visible when you’re in Pluvel Calendar Synced calendar Seeing deadlines alongside meetings
What you get by default Out of the box, here’s when you’ll hear from us:
Time Before Due Email Push Dashboard 60 days ✓ ✓ 30 days ✓ ✓ 14 days ✓ ✓ ✓ 7 days ✓ ✓ ✓ Day of ✓ ✓ ✓ Past due Daily ✓ ✓
Most people find this works well. But if it doesn’t, change it.
Customizing your notifications Go to Settings → Compliance → Notifications to adjust.
Different schedules for different deadlines Not all compliance items are equally complex. Filing an annual report takes 5 minutes. Shopping for new insurance takes weeks. Set different lead times accordingly:
Category When we start reminding Frequent reminders start Annual reports 90 days 30 days Tax filings 60 days 14 days License renewals 60 days 30 days Registered agent 45 days 14 days
Urgency levels Adjust how aggressively we remind you:
Urgency What it means Normal Standard reminder schedule Important More frequent reminders Critical Daily reminders starting 30 days out Quiet Minimal notifications (for items you track elsewhere)
Email settings Choose your frequency Option How it works Individual One email per deadline, per reminder interval Daily digest One email each morning with everything due soon Weekly digest One email each Monday
Digest mode is great if you’re drowning in email. You get one summary instead of five separate reminders.
When digests send
Daily digest: 8 AM your local timeWeekly digest: Monday at 8 AM
What’s in each email Every compliance email includes:
Deadline name and due date
Days remaining
One-click link to take action
When you last filed (if applicable)
Push notifications Push notifications go to the Pluvel mobile app. Install the app to receive them.
When you’ll get push alerts
Urgent deadlines (within 7 days)
Past due items
Filing confirmations
Quiet hours Don’t want compliance alerts at 11 PM? Set quiet hours:
Go to Settings → Notifications → Quiet Hours
Set start and end times
Push notifications wait until quiet hours end
Truly urgent items (past due, same day) may still send during quiet hours. If that’s a problem, you can disable even urgent notifications in settings.
Dashboard alerts Even if you ignore every email, the dashboard keeps track.
The compliance widget shows:
Deadlines due within 30 days
Overdue items (always visible until resolved)
Recently filed items
Alert badges Red badges appear on:
Sidebar navigation (Compliance menu item)
Dashboard compliance card
Notification bell icon
Badges clear when you view or resolve the item. They’re designed to catch your eye, not nag you indefinitely.

Team notifications Who gets what Role What they receive Owner All compliance notifications Admin All compliance notifications Accountant Tax-related deadlines only Team Member Only items assigned to them
When you assign a deadline
The assignee receives all notifications for that item
You (owner) still get copies
Assignment is noted in the notification
Adding multiple recipients For critical deadlines, add extra eyes:
Click the deadline
Go to Notifications
Add team members
Each person receives their own notifications
Good for things like annual reports where missing the deadline affects everyone.
Notification history Not sure if you received a reminder? Check the log:
Go to Settings → Compliance → Notification History
View sent notifications
Filter by date, type, or recipient
Useful for settling “I never got that email” discussions.
Do Not Disturb mode Going on vacation? Pause compliance notifications:
Go to Settings → Compliance → Notifications
Enable Do Not Disturb
Set an end date
Notifications resume automatically
The deadlines don’t pause — just the notifications. Make sure nothing critical is due during your quiet period.
Escalation for past-due items If something slips through, notifications get more aggressive:
Days Past Due What happens 1-3 Daily email reminders 4-7 Daily email + push notifications 8+ Multiple daily reminders, owner always CC’d
This is intentional. Past-due compliance items can have serious consequences (late fees, loss of good standing, personal liability). We’d rather be annoying than let you get hurt.
External notifications Keep your accountant in the loop Add your accountant to compliance notifications:
