PublishersKronical

A researcher for each reporter that reads filings, company registries and local press on their beat, and finds links that haven’t been reported yet. Ask it anything about the story.

The job
  • Wires
  • Filings
  • Company registries
  • Local press
  • Official statements
  • Social posts
  • Many languages

Every newsroom needs someone who keeps up with the sources on every beat and spots the story nobody has run yet. Kronical does the reading so reporters can do the reporting.

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 cover logistics for a national paper.”

  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 finds the link sitting in the filings that nobody has reported.

How it found it

The story was in the filings.

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

  1. 1
    The filing

    A company registry shows Halvex has sold Brenmoor Logistics, its delivery arm, to a holding company set up in March.

  2. 2
    On your map

    One of the holding company’s two directors also sits on Halvex’s own board, so Halvex may in effect have sold the arm to itself. That is a story for the reporter who covers Halvex.

  3. 3
    Why it matters

    Nobody has reported the link. The reporter gets the filings, the dates and the names to call.

A day in the newsroom

It works the hours the news does

  1. 1
    Overnight

    It follows each beat across time zones, in the languages the sources use. Before conference each reporter knows what is new on their beat.

  2. 2
    First sign

    A filing shows a company on your beat has quietly changed its directors. It tells the reporter who covers it, with what the company said before.

  3. 3
    During the day

    News reaches you as it lands. When a story builds, it tells you what is new and what is the same thing said again.

  4. 4
    In the background

    It keeps track of what links to each beat: a company’s owners, a court case, a region nobody covers. When a link turns into a story, the reporter hears about it.

  5. 5
    End of day

    What moved on each beat and why, in plain words, and what it is watching overnight.

You stay in charge

It finds. You report. It does the reading, the watching and the first pass. You make the calls.

It hands you
  • What is new, and where it first appeared
  • What came before, with the dates
  • Links between stories that are easy to miss
  • What it thinks is worth a call
  • The sources behind every note
You keep
  • What runs, and when
  • Every word you publish
  • Which of its leads to chase
Where it works
what did Halvex say about selling Brenmoor?

Its annual report, filed in April, said it had no plans to sell. Two months later Brenmoor changed hands.

It talks to each reporter in the apps the newsroom already uses, and answers when they reply.

We already have the wires. Why this?

The wires give every newsroom the same story, fast. This one adds what is specific to each beat: the filings, the registries and the links nobody has reported yet.

Does it write articles?

No. It finds what is new and shows where it came from. Every word you publish is yours.

Can each reporter have their own?

Yes. Each reporter gets one set up around their beat, and it learns from what they ask it.

What does it read?

Wires, publishers, local press, social posts, company filings and registries, official statements and government notices, across countries and languages.

How does it learn a beat?

The reporter tells it their beat in their own words, like “I cover logistics for a national paper”. From then on it sharpens what matters as they 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.
