See further than your strategy deck.
Watch the macro environment for signals that change what's possible in 12 to 36 months. Open literature, policy filings, science, reputable press — pulled together into a structured radar your team can actually act on.
About 20 minutes start to finish.
Three things, on every run.
- Pulls signals from open literature, policy filings, scientific publications, and reputable press.
- Clusters them by category, scores them on verifiability, ranks by convergence across sources.
- Refreshes on a schedule. The view of the future updates as the world does.
Here's what this scan actually produces.
Run on the theme AI infrastructure scaling with 31 frontier models. 206 unique signals after dedup, 70 confirmed by two or more models.
Each node = one signal. Angle by category, distance from centre by verifiability, size by ensemble convergence.

Large language models increasingly use sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures. This design allows for scaling model capacity without proportional increases in inference cost. Signals a pathway to larger, more performant models with controlled inference budgets.
Hyperscale data centers deploy direct-to-chip liquid cooling systems. This approach manages heat dissipation for high-density GPU clusters. Signals increasing power demands and density of AI compute infrastructure.
New techniques reduce model precision to 4-bit or lower with minimal performance degradation. Signals that model compression is critical for enabling on-device and edge deployment.
Concrete artifacts, not a vibe.
- A categorized radar of 40 to 100 signals you can read in five minutes.
- Source citations on every signal — no orphan claims, no AI vibes.
- A workspace you can re-run quarterly without starting over.
When this scan earns its keep.
- Strategy leads
Building a strategic plan and want to test the assumptions against external signals first.
Strategy leads, planning teams
- Founders & chiefs
Briefing a board on what's changing that the team isn't paying attention to yet.
Chiefs of staff, CSOs
- Foresight & R&D
Setting up an ongoing intelligence function rather than commissioning one-off reports.

First scan is on us. Output becomes Session 1 of your first workspace if you keep going.
