( Tools )

Custom intelligence systems, built for how you work.

We build private monitoring tools that watch the internet for you. Configured to your industry, your sources, and your priorities.

( The Problem )

Most teams rely on Google Alerts, manual searches, or expensive enterprise platforms that were built for someone else’s workflow.

The result is noise. Missed signals. Hours spent scanning sites and inboxes for information that should already be in front of you.

We build something different. A private intelligence dashboard — configured specifically for your industry, your sources, and your team’s daily workflow. It monitors the web automatically, scores and summarises everything, and surfaces what actually matters.

You open your dashboard in the morning. Everything relevant from the last 24 hours is already there.

( Sources & Ingestion )

There is no limit on the number of sources we can monitor. Each system is built around the sources that matter to your industry \u2014 whether that\u2019s 20 or 200. We configure the ingestion method, frequency, and processing pipeline for each one.

News & media outlets

National press, regional publications, and industry-specific outlets — ingested via RSS for real-time updates or web scraping for sites without feeds.

Government & regulatory

Media releases, policy announcements, departmental updates, and regulatory filings — scraped on schedule and summarised automatically.

Trade & industry publications

Sector-specific trade press, association news, and specialist journals covering your exact vertical.

Social media channels

Twitter/X keyword tracking, Instagram hashtag monitoring, Facebook event feeds — capturing signals before they hit traditional media.

AI-powered web search

Targeted semantic search queries that find relevant content across the open web — not limited to sites you already know about.

( What It Does )

AI-powered summaries

Every item is summarised by an LLM with context specific to your industry. Not generic — it explains why each item matters to you.

Smart relevance scoring

Configurable 0–100 scoring tuned to your domain. Surface what matters, filter out the noise. Adjust thresholds as your priorities shift.

Auto-clustering

Related stories from different outlets are automatically grouped. One announcement across 10 sources shows as one cluster, not 10 duplicate items.

Advanced filtering

Filter by topic, location, source type, date range, relevance score, entity mentions, and full-text search. Save filter presets for your daily workflow.

Auto-tagging & classification

Items are automatically tagged with topics, locations, organisations, and people using domain-specific keyword dictionaries built for your industry.

Source health monitoring

See which sources are active, which are stale, and which have had failures. Know the quality of your data at a glance.

( Use Cases )

Every system is configured from the ground up for a specific use case. The sources, scoring rules, topic categories, and filters are all tailored to what you need to know.

Competitive intelligence — monitor competitor announcements, partnerships, hiring, and market moves

( How It Works )

We map your industry, identify the sources that matter, define what “relevant” means for your team, and understand your daily workflow.

02

Configuration

We build your source list, configure the ingestion pipeline and schedules, set up scoring rules, topic categories, and filters — all specific to your domain.

03

Deployment

Your private dashboard goes live. Automated ingestion runs on schedule. You log in and everything is there.

04

Ongoing

We maintain the system, add new sources, tune scoring, and evolve the tool as your needs change. You focus on the intelligence, not the infrastructure.
