A morning in the group
Each alert lands in its own topic, so you can mute buses and keep the water cuts.

Greek word

Example alerts in the group’s style. Outages come from the official water and power notices; internet outages come from the Greek press.
What it does
- Outages first
- Planned water and power cuts from the official notices, translated and posted before they hit.
- Weather and buses
- A short morning weather note, and the blue-bus changes that matter.
- Holidays with notice
- A week’s heads-up on public and local holidays, so the shops never surprise you.
- Topics you can mute
- Every kind of alert has its own topic. Keep what you need and silence the rest.
- A Greek word a day
- Because you live here now.
Why we built it
“The water’s off tomorrow, and the notice is in a language I can’t read yet.”
We moved to Corfu and kept finding out about water cuts when the tap ran dry. The notices exist; they’re just in Greek, scattered across websites. Corfu Alerts reads them for you.
Where it stands
Live now in Corfu. It runs every day in an English Telegram group, and it’s free.
Next up: the same service for other Greek cities, starting with Athens.
