Today we’re excited to announce two major additions to Knock in-app messaging: in-app messaging components and in-app message types (BYO UI to Knock.) With these releases you can power all of your in-app messaging—transactional, product announcements, lifecycle—through Knock in a performant, native way. Here’s more on what we’re releasing today 👇

I live in a city where installing a subway elevator needs funding from Macy’s and gets its own opening ceremony; where containerized bins from the 70’s are seen as a revolutionary innovation. It’s a real mystery why people are fed up with democratic urban governance.

🎉 Another one of our favorite products just became a Knock customer. We’re proud to partner with @zapier to power notifications for their 2m+ users.

Sometimes you need to text the group chat like you're updating your Facebook status in 2009.

My favorite Eric Adams story is this one from Curbed where they tried to prove he actually lived in NYC by staking out his house for a week. He came home twice, parked in front of a garage, and when he left, there was traffic, so he drove on the sidewalk. curbed.com/2021/11/eric-a…

Israel having the ability to target militant networks in this sophisticated way as well as its targeting of high level Hamas figures abroad makes its operation in Gaza look even more deliberately genocidal

As an Underhill Ave resident I’d be devastated if these two programs were cancelled. I love open streets and the Underhill redesign. Plz don’t do this @NYCMayor @NYCMayorsOffice @NYCComptroller

@J_Everhart383 @knocklabs _always_ down to try new things with you Jeff 🫡

h/t to @ceskavich and @knocklabs for letting me try new things

"I didn't have time to make a short video, so I made a long one instead." - Mark Twain, (maybe)... Anyone who's produced technical content knows how tough it is to be concise. Every new term or abstraction is a potential rabbit hole. Will my audience understand the difference between a query and a transaction? Do they know all these service acronyms? B2B marketers are saying short video is the future. But how do you create content for a technical audience that isn't cringe or full of hype? Content that actually educates and builds trust? We're too early in this trend to have all the answers, but letting the engineer tell their story seems like the best bet we can make. Obsess over the technical problem like it's a plot: what are the stakes, the status quo, the resolution? And then rewrite it until you can say it in 60 seconds. Will this authentic story beat a video with fancy editing and slick transitions? I'm not sure yet. But after watching our content, the viewer will have learned something technical that might save them some pain someday. From my perspective, that's a win. Check out the video that inspired this tweet 👇

🛳️ Announcing Partials: A new way to reuse content in your product notification templates. Create a Partial, render it in any template, and manage it with git-like version control, all in Knock.

Here's me talking about a fun little performance tuning problem I got to dig into at work a couple months ago 🤓
