PR and communicationsKronical

An analyst in your press office that follows what is written about your company, its rivals and its issues, and tells you a story is building before a journalist calls. Ask it anything about your coverage.

  • News
  • Trade press
  • Social posts
  • Campaigners
  • Regulators
  • Filings
  • Many languages

Every press office needs someone who keeps up with what is said about the company and spots the story before it reaches a national desk. Kronical reads all of it, so you hear first.

Reading it all only helps if it knows what matters to you. That part it learns.

How it gets to know you

First, it learns what matters to you

  1. 1
    You tell it your job.

    In your own words: “I run press for a UK food company.”

  2. 2
    It learns what matters to you.

    From what you ask it and what you tell it was useful. Each petal is one thing that matters to you: a company, a person, an issue. The more it learns about one, the bigger and bluer it grows.

  3. 3
    It reads the news against it.

    So it knows a protest at a carton factory is about you, though the post never names you.

How it found it

The post never named your company.

Every step it took, in order. An illustrative example.

  1. 1
    The post

    A campaign group says it will protest at a packaging factory on Friday.

  2. 2
    On your map

    Lumen Pack makes the cartons for your two biggest brands. Your name isn’t in the post.

  3. 3
    Why it matters

    Two local reporters have shared it. If the protest gets coverage, your brands could be drawn in, because they rely on that factory. You hear about it before anyone calls.

A day in the press office

It works the hours the news does

  1. 1
    Early

    It reads the morning papers and the night’s posts, across languages. Before your first call you know what was said about you, your rivals and your issues.

  2. 2
    First mention

    A trade title runs a story about one of your sites. It tells you within minutes, who wrote it, and whether anyone has picked it up.

  3. 3
    During the day

    News reaches you as it lands. When a story spreads, it tells you which outlets have picked it up and where it is heading.

  4. 4
    In the background

    It keeps track of what sits close to you: a supplier you never named, a campaign group, a rule being drafted. When one of them starts to drift your way, you hear about it.

  5. 5
    End of day

    How your coverage moved today and why, in plain words, and what it is watching tonight.

You stay in charge

It tells you. You do the talking. It does the reading, the watching and the first pass. You make the calls.

It hands you
  • The stories that matter to you, and where each one started
  • How far it has spread, and who picked it up
  • Links to you a reporter could make before you do
  • What it thinks you should look at next
  • The sources behind every note
You keep
  • What you say, and when
  • Who you talk to
  • Which of its leads to follow up

We already have a monitoring tool. Why this?

A monitoring tool lists everything written about you. This one knows your issues, tells you which stories matter and why, and warns you before a story spreads.

Does it write our statements?

No. It tells you what is being said, where, and how fast it is spreading. What you say stays with you.

Can it watch our rivals too?

Yes. Tell it their names, and it adds the ones that keep turning up next to you.

What does it read?

News, trade press, publishers, social posts, company filings, regulators and government notices, across countries and languages.

How does it learn our issues?

You tell it your job in your own words, like “I run press for a UK food company”. From then on it sharpens what matters as you ask it questions and tell it what was useful.

Where does it talk to me?

Slack, Microsoft Teams and email, or from Claude and ChatGPT. Reply to anything it sends to ask a follow-up.
