A competitor moved, and leadership is asking.
You're tracking a named set of rivals, and the intel lives in a Slack channel of screenshots that no one can quote.What you walk away withA categorized, cited record of every rival's public moves, ready to drop into the next leadership briefing.
The job.
Watch the public moves of a defined competitor set across product, pricing, GTM, hiring, capital, and messaging, categorized so you can read posture instead of a raw event list. Every signal cites its source, so the next leadership briefing starts from a record instead of another Monday email.
Why Signals, here.
- Every move ships with the page, filing, or posting it came from, so you can quote it in a deck without verifying twice.
- Moves are categorized into posture, so you see what each rival is expanding or pulling back from, not a raw feed.
- A new PMM hire can read the competitive record on day one instead of chasing a year of tribal memory.
The scans that answer it.
Each scan is a structured research method. Start with one, or run several into the same Workspace.
Open an example.
A real run you can open: radar, categories, and a source on every signal.
You're heading into the planning cycle.
You're sizing up a market or technology you don't know yet.
A rule changed, or a risk is building, and you can't be last to know.
You're walking into the room and want to know more than it does.
You're deciding where in the world to build or expand.
You're publishing a point of view.
Questions
What does “verified” actually mean on a signal?
Every signal carries its evidence. During a scan we run a source-and-verify pass: each claim is checked against the sources it came from, and those sources travel with the signal so you can open them yourself. “Verified” means the conclusion is backed by evidence we can show you, not a model’s say-so.
Why run several models instead of one chatbot?
A single chatbot gives you one model’s view through one lens. Signals runs the same brief across multiple frontier models in parallel, each blind to the others, then merges and scores what they surface. Where the models converge you get a consensus signal; where one stands alone you get a more novel, potentially disruptive one. Their agreement is itself a quality measure: the result didn’t come from one model’s bias, it came through all of them.
What stops the AI from inventing a trend?
Two things. Signals are grounded in retrieved sources rather than generated from memory, and a separate fact-checking step re-reads each one against its sources before it lands in your research record. A claim with no source behind it does not ship as verified. In practice about 95% of signals come back verified, and the rest are flagged for review rather than quietly kept.
Can I see the sources behind a conclusion?
Yes. Sources are attached to every signal, and you can trace a radar or report back to the evidence behind it. The whole point is research your team can defend.
Can I limit it to peer-reviewed or high-quality sources?
Yes. Verification is configurable: require peer-reviewed sources only when rigor matters, or allow broader sources when you’re scanning for inspiration. Either way, every signal carries the sources it was checked against, so you can judge the evidence yourself.
Which AI models do you use?
A scan runs a multi-model pass rather than betting on one provider, routing through the Vercel AI Gateway to the major labs. We pick the model that does each step best (retrieval, verification, synthesis) instead of asking one model to do everything.
What is a scan?
A scan is a multi-model pass over a research theme. It gathers sources, runs source-and-verify on what it finds, and returns a radar of signals with a starter report. Each signal includes sources you can check.
What do I get back from a scan?
A radar of verified signals for the theme, the sources behind each one, and a starter report you can build on. If you run a free scan, that output becomes the first Session in your Workspace when you sign up.
How is the free scan different from a deep scan?
The free scan is a starter Workflow on one theme, enough to see the method and the citations for yourself. A deep scan inside a plan runs the full source-and-verify, briefing-assistant, and assessment passes, and you can run them on your own themes as often as your monthly budget allows.
Is there a free trial?
No trial, but every visitor gets one free scan: enter a research theme and we run a starter Workflow on us. The output becomes the first Session in your Workspace if you sign up.
