How it works

Thousands of articles in.
One clear picture out.

Alethman reads the news so your team doesn’t have to read all of it. Four steps turn a day’s coverage into stories you can act on, and every step leaves a trail you can check.

Four steps, every day.

The same pipeline runs for every workspace. You choose what it reads; it does the reading.

  1. 01Read

    Alethman pulls articles from vetted national news sources in every country you follow, and records where and when each one was published.

  2. 02Group

    Articles about the same event become one story, so two hundred headlines are one thing to read. The people, places and organizations in them are matched across articles.

  3. 03Score

    Each story and each sector gets a reading: how much attention it is getting, how fast that is changing, and whether outlets disagree about what happened.

  4. 04Report

    You see it on a map, in an inbox of alerts, and in reports you can print or share. Every number links back to the articles behind it.

Three ways to look at it.

01

The map

Coverage shaded by where it was reported, so a story building in one region shows before it reaches the national outlets.

A dark map of the United States, states shaded by how much was reported there, with markers where stories cluster.

02

The story

One event with all its coverage: the curve of how it spread, where it was placed, and who carried it across the political spectrum.

A story page showing how a merger story spread across 12 outlets, where it was reported, and a breakdown of the outlets covering it.

03

The inbox

Readings that crossed the threshold you set, each with a line on what changed. Read them, star them, or archive them.

The alerts inbox, with a chart of alerts by day and a list of readings that crossed their thresholds.

Where it runs.

Hosted
You sign in to the hosted dashboard. We set up the countries, topics and people for your workspace.
Private deployment
For government and other sensitive work, we can deploy Alethman inside your own cloud or network. We scope it with you.
Reports
Any view can be compiled into a report to print or share, with the sources listed at the end.

What it won’t do.

Alethman shows you what is being said and how it is spreading. It doesn’t decide what is true, it doesn’t take sides, and it doesn’t write anyone’s message for them.

It reads open, lawful sources and data you are entitled to hold. It doesn’t read private messages or profile private individuals. Every search is logged against the person who ran it.
