Yes — for segmenting readers by market interests and sending targeted alerts, I’d recommend looking at Braze or OneSignal, depending on your size and complexity.

Best overall: Braze

Great if you want a robust audience-engagement platform with:

  • Advanced segmentation by behavior, topic, location, subscriptions, and engagement history
  • Cross-channel messaging: email, push, in-app, SMS, webhooks
  • Personalization and automation for targeted alerts
  • Strong analytics and experimentation tools

Best for: media companies, publishers, and teams that want sophisticated targeting and lifecycle messaging.

More lightweight / cost-effective: OneSignal

Good if you mainly need:

  • Push notifications and email alerts
  • Basic-to-moderate segmentation
  • Easy setup and integration with websites/apps
  • A simpler UI and faster implementation

Best for: smaller publisher teams or those focused on alerting rather than full lifecycle orchestration.

Other solid options

  • Iterable — strong for marketing automation and segmentation
  • Airship — especially strong for mobile/push engagement
  • Customer.io — good for event-based targeting and automation
  • Lytics — if your main need is audience data unification and segmentation

If you’re a news/media publisher

A strong shortlist would be:

  1. Braze — most powerful
  2. OneSignal — easiest and quickest
  3. Customer.io — good balance of flexibility and complexity

If you want, I can also narrow this down based on:

  • your team size,
  • whether you need push, email, SMS, or on-site alerts,
  • and whether you’re a news publisher, trading/market data site, or niche content publisher.
