Comprehensive Coverage
We scan GitHub commits, arXiv papers, product launches, Reddit discussions, HackerNews threads, and tech news—not just press releases.
AI-Powered Analysis
Our system automatically identifies patterns, extracts key entities, and synthesizes thousands of data points into actionable intelligence.
Daily Digest Format
Instead of a never-ending stream, we give you one focused daily report with lead stories, key developments, and most-mentioned companies.
No Paywalls or Ads
Free, open access to all intelligence reports. Our business model is transparency, not gated content or advertising clutter.
How We Create Daily Intelligence
Our intelligence pipeline analyzes thousands of AI-related events daily, extracting meaningful signals and synthesizing them into a single focused report.
24/7 Event Collection
We continuously monitor 200+ verified sources across GitHub, arXiv, Reddit, HackerNews, tech news sites, product hunt, and company blogs. Every commit, paper, launch, and discussion is captured.
AI-Powered Event Classification
Our ML models automatically categorize each event by type (research, product, funding, etc.), extract key entities (companies, people, products), and assign significance scores.
Noise Filtering & Deduplication
We filter out spam, marketing fluff, and duplicate coverage. If 20 outlets cover the same announcement, you get one synthesized entry—not 20 redundant articles.
- ✓Deduplication: Merge identical stories from multiple sources
- ✓Spam removal: Filter SEO spam and low-quality content
- ✓Marketing filter: Separate substance from hype
Daily Synthesis & Ranking
At the end of each day (UTC), we rank all events by significance, identify the lead story, and generate a structured daily report with key highlights, top companies mentioned, and notable developments.
Human Review & Publication
While our AI handles classification and synthesis, every report gets a quick human review to ensure quality, fix edge cases, and add editorial context where helpful. Published daily at midnight UTC.
Transparency in Intelligence
Open methodology: You can see exactly which sources we use, how events are scored, and what makes the lead story.
Verifiable data: Every event links back to original sources (GitHub, arXiv, news articles) for validation.
No editorial bias: Story ranking is algorithmic based on significance scores, not human editorial preferences.
