Punchbowl News, the two-year-old Congress-focused media startup, will launch a text-based breaking news service this month to send real-time alerts to paid subscribers instead of relying on Twitter, according to the company's founders.

For now, the company doesn't plan to offer the messages beyond its subscribers, seeing the service as an added benefit for paying customers.

Punchbowl brought in over $10 million in its first year in business in 2021, with around 10% of that revenue coming from subscription fees, AxiosThe alerts will be used mostly to inform readers about news that breaks between newsletter updates. Punchbowl publishes three newsletters a day, five times per week.
