Statewide liquor inventory updates once a day. PourAlert checks every bottle you're watching automatically and texts you when one shows up near you. Fair warning: it won't beat anyone to a big-city Pappy drop — it's built for the hunting that actually works: smaller towns and bottles that sit on shelves.
PourAlert hasn't launched. Signing up just adds your name and number to the waitlist — no bottles to pick, nothing to set up yet. Honestly, this just helps me decide if people would actually use it.

In Portland, Salem, Eugene, and other metro areas, the hottest allocated bottles are frequently gone within hours of arriving, sometimes before the day's data even updates. A once-a-day check cannot win that race, full stop. If you live in a big city and only care about the hottest bottles, you should expect very few useful alerts. We'd rather tell you that up front than take your $4.99/month and have you feel misled.
Outside the metro areas, allocated bottles regularly sit on shelves for days. A daily check plus automatic area-filtering is genuinely enough to get you there before it's gone.
The list updates daily, but nobody logs in every single morning to search five or ten different bottle names, one at a time.
The state's own search tool and other free trackers have the same data we do — but they're search-it-yourself, statewide, with no way to filter to just your area automatically and no alerts at all.
These are the plans at launch. Signing up above only joins the waitlist — no plan starts until PourAlert is live.
