How a mention is made
What happens between someone saying something in public and it appearing here. Most of what we look at never makes it through.
1. Follow the coverage
We follow business and financial news, keeping each article with its link and the time it was published.
2. Find who and what
We work out which of the people we track are speaking, and which company, commodity or Bitcoin they are speaking about.
3. Take the exact words
Most articles carry no usable quote and stop here. What continues has to carry the speaker's own words, not a summary of them.
4. Read the stance
Whether they sounded positive, negative or neutral is AI-classified — labelled as such wherever it appears, and never our own view.
5. Hold anything doubtful
A mention has to clear a confidence bar before you see it. Anything short of it is held back rather than published.
What we check for
The rules the pipeline actually enforces.
- Verbatim, or nothingA mention only appears with the speaker's exact words. No clean quote in the source, no mention — this is a hard rule, not a preference.
- Every mention links to its sourceThe original article and its timestamp travel with the quote, so you can check it yourself rather than take our word for it.
- Stance is AI-classifiedThe label describes what the speaker said. It is never our opinion of the asset, and never a recommendation.
- Colour never signals directionPrice charts use one colour whether the price rose or fell. A green line would read as a verdict on the speaker.
- Duplicates are mergedThe same quote reported by two outlets appears once, keeping both sources, rather than counting twice in your feed.
- Low confidence is held, not publishedMost of what we look at never reaches you. When we are not confident enough, the mention stays unpublished rather than being shown with a caveat.
