Every crisis starts as a narrative. Catch it there.
Alethman is narrative intelligence. It follows how a story forms and spreads across outlets and countries, shows who is carrying each version, and sets every claim beside the record: the documents, files and payments that confirm or contradict it. Your team sees it early, with the evidence attached.
Live See the engine at work on Alethman NewsNarratives move faster than the record.
A false claim takes a minute to make and an afternoon to check. By the time a team has read the coverage, the story has set, and decisions about money, policy and reputation are already being made on it.
Media monitoring tells you how loud a story is. It doesn’t tell you which version is taking hold, who is carrying it, or whether the record backs it up. That gap is where a crisis starts, and it is the gap Alethman closes.
No. 2
The rank of misinformation and disinformation among global risks for the next two years.
World Economic Forum, Global Risks Report 2026 (opens in a new tab)Four questions, from the first report to the record.
Narrative intelligence is knowing what is being said, who is saying it, how fast it is moving, and whether the evidence agrees. Alethman answers all four in one place.
-
What is the story?
Every report about one event, from every outlet and country you follow, becomes one story. Two hundred headlines become one thing to read.
The Desk
-
Who is telling which version?
The claim at the center of each story, what every report agrees on, what is disputed, and which outlets carry each version, by political lean and by country.
The Desk
-
How fast is it moving?
How much attention a story is drawing and how fast that is changing, a 0 to 100 reading for each sector you follow, and an alert when one crosses its line.
The Desk
-
What does the record say?
Each claim set beside the documents that confirm or contradict it, the files your teams already hold, and the payments about to go out.
Pramaan, Arctus and Polity
One engine. The story, the record and the money.

Pramaan
Narrative response
Catch a false claim while it’s still small.
Flags claims about the institutions and programs you need watched while they are still spreading, shows the earliest reports it can find and the outlets that carried them, and gathers the sourced record you need to answer early.

Arctus
Evidence fusion
Join scattered records into one assessment.
Joins records your teams already hold with open sources, matches the people, companies and items they share, and puts one assessment in front of the person who decides.
See Arctus -
Polity
Payment integrity
Stop a bad payment before the money leaves.
Reads payment, procurement and vendor records together, and holds payments that fit a known risk pattern for a person to review before release. Today it reads India’s PFMS, GeM and CPPP.

The facts no outlet disputes, each one linked to the reports that carry it.
How each side told it
The versions the left, the center and the right carried, and which outlets carried each one.
What the record shows

What we’ve been checking.
We post fact checks and coverage breakdowns on X: which viral clips are old, where the numbers disagree, and how the same story is framed by different outlets.
How we work.
Intelligence that has to survive an auditor, a court or the press. Six commitments hold for every customer and every product.
We show our sources.
Every story, score and alert links back to the articles and records behind it, so you can check the work yourself.
A person decides.
Alethman hands over evidence. It never decides who is guilty or what is true; a named person does, and owns the call.
We don’t take sides.
We show who is saying what, and where reports differ. We don’t tell you which side to be on.
We don’t write the message.
Alethman generates no posts, statements or campaigns for anyone. It reads; you speak.
Public sources and your own data only.
Open, lawful sources and data you are entitled to hold. No private messages, and no profiling of private individuals.
Every search is on the record.
Each query is logged against the person who ran it, and the log is open to your own auditors.
Questions people ask first.
What is Alethman?
Alethman is a narrative intelligence platform. It reads national news coverage across the United States, India and more than a dozen other countries, groups the reports about one event into one story, and shows what every report agrees on, what is disputed and who is carrying each version. Its products set those claims beside the record: Pramaan with documents, Arctus with the files a team already holds, and Polity with payment and procurement records.
What is narrative intelligence?
Knowing which version of a story is taking hold, who is carrying it, how fast it is moving and what the record says about it. Media monitoring counts mentions; narrative intelligence reads how a story is told and checks it against the evidence.
Is Alethman a news website?
No. Alethman is software for teams who have to respond to what is being said. Alethman News, at news.alethman.com, is our newsroom: it publishes the engine’s reading of the day’s biggest stories so anyone can see how it works.
Who is Alethman for?
Teams who have to answer for what is being said: government press offices, regulators and finance departments, corporate affairs and risk teams, campaigns and policy consultancies, newsrooms and fact-checkers, and security and compliance analysts.
Which countries does it cover?
The United States and India in depth, plus more than a dozen other countries, including the UK, Canada, France and Germany, from vetted national news feeds. You choose the countries your workspace follows and can compare how each one tells the same story.
Does Alethman decide what is true?
No. Alethman finds claims, traces them and gathers the evidence. A person on your team reviews it and makes the call. Every finding links to its sources so anyone can check it.
How much does Alethman cost?
Pricing is custom. It depends on the countries and topics you follow, the number of people on your team, which products you use and where it runs. Get in touch and we will send a quote.
Can it run inside our own infrastructure?
Alethman runs as a hosted service. For government and other sensitive work, a private deployment inside your own cloud or network can be scoped with you.
