We tell sales and business-development teams who is about to buy.
We also publish a free analysis of how the world’s press reports the news.
They answer different questions, and both are held to the same standards.

Part 1 · For business
How an intelligence report is made
1. We scope it to what you sell
Every report starts with a conversation, not a keyword list. We scope your market with you: the markets you operate in; the competitors, customers, suppliers and regulators that matter; and the topics you need watched. From that we tune a source list to your market: trade and industry press, regulators and official filings, tender and procurement portals, local news where you operate, and your competitors’ own announcements. Anything you already rely on can go in, and anything that turns out to be noise comes back out.
2. We read your sources continuously
Around the clock, we read what those sources publish. The first signs of a contract, an expansion or a rule change usually appear in local trade press and official notices, often in the local language, before any national outlet picks them up. We read them where they appear and hand you each item in English, with the original linked so your team can check it.
3. We judge every item against your priorities
Every item is judged against what you actually sell rather than against a keyword: the scope, the buyer, the value where it is published, the deadline, and whether you could realistically deliver it. Anything borderline is dropped rather than carried. That is deliberate: when bid capacity is the constraint, a tender wrongly flagged costs more than one quietly missed — a week of someone’s time, and your trust in the next report. Five you can act on beat twenty you have to triage. Retellings of one event are collapsed into the most complete telling, and “urgent” is rationed so that it still means something.
4. We deliver a report you can act on
A short, written report lands where your team works: what happened, why it matters to you, and a suggested first move, with the original source linked on every item. Leads go to sales, rules to compliance, a summary to the board. Cadence is yours: daily, weekly, monthly, or the moment something lands. Nothing to log into: no dashboard, no seats, nobody whose job it is to read it.
What we verify, on every item
The standards are the ones our public analysis is held to, set out in our Editorial Standards. An outlet is attributed to its actual publisher; wire copy carried under many mastheads is counted once; nothing is reported that has not been read; every item links to where it came from. We read public sources only, and we will turn down a scope that requires anything else.
Part 2 · For everyone
World news analysis
Most intelligence is sold on trust. Ours is published every day, in the open. We take the most significant stories moving through the world’s press and publish how outlets in different countries covered each one. It is the same work as a report — reading widely, judging what matters, showing every source — with a different question: not what has moved in your market, but how the world reported a story.
On every analysis you can check:
- every source, named and linked to the original reporting;
- how many independent reporting chains those sources represent — thirty sites carrying one wire story count as one voice, not thirty;
- which coverage was relayed, translated or taken from a wire agency, labeled on the source card;
- where the outlets agree on the facts, and how their framing differs.
One protest. Three headlines.
“Violent demonstrators clash with police”
“Thousands rally against the government”
The same event, reported three ways — we surface all of them, and link every original source.
A story has to earn its place: on a day when none clears the standard, nothing is published. Corrections are public: a corrected piece carries a dated notice showing the text before and after, and the same entry appears in the permanent corrections log. We do not silently edit anything we have published.
That is what a buyer can check before paying: the reading, the sourcing and the judgment, every day, in public.

Who does what
AI does most of the reading and the first draft, and we say so plainly. People own the rest. For a report, our experts scope it with you, retune its sources and rules as your priorities change, and review it with you on a set schedule. For the public analysis, the system follows a written charter, and changing what it does means changing the charter first, on the record, by a person. Every piece is published under a named author who is responsible for it.
When we get something wrong, we say so on the piece itself and record it in the corrections log. To report an error, see our Editorial Standards or Contact page.
