The Energetic X-ray Imaging Survey Telescope (EXIST) is a proposed hard X-ray imaging all-sky deep survey mission that will provide an unprecedented sensitivity as well as monitoring and localization capabilities to X-ray transients. One of the three major science cases for EXIST is the discovery and study of X-ray transients in the local Universe. This includes shock breakout emission from core-collapse supernovae, outbursts from ULXs and SSSs, coronal activity from flare stars, tidal disruption events, QPOs and SGR superflares. The unique optical/IR follow-up capabilities provided by EXIST's on-board IR Telescope will revolutionize our broadband understanding of these transient high-energy phenomena, in conjunction with ground-based surveys such as Pan-STARRS and LSST.
