About
NewReleases.io is a release tracking service for software developers and DevOps teams. It monitors supported source code and package registries such as GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, Gitea, Bitbucket, PyPI, NPM, Yarn, Maven, RubyGems, Packagist, NuGet, Cargo, Hex, CPAN, Docker Hub, AWS ECR Public, Quay, and Artifact Hub, then sends release notifications by email, Slack, Telegram, Discord, Google Chat, Microsoft Teams, Mattermost, Rocket.Chat, Matrix, or webhooks.
The free plan includes tracking for the listed providers, importing projects from repository stars and common dependency files, release-note notifications, version filtering, organizations, and HTTP API access. Notifications can be delivered hourly, daily, weekly, or instantly, and the service also offers a command-line interface and badge support for release status.
- Release monitoring across 20+ providers
- Email, Slack, Telegram, and webhook alerts
- Import from stars and dependency files
- Version filtering by regex and flags
- Organizations and HTTP API access
- Instant and scheduled notification delivery
Free Tier Value
This free tier is perpetual and has no stated usage cap, so there isn’t a defensible monthly dollar equivalent to estimate. A credit card is not required, and the free offering includes the full feature set shown on the pricing page, so it is treated as an unbounded always-free plan.
