The problem it solves

You want to stay on top of AI news and market moves, but checking X, your inbox, and a dozen websites every day eats up time you don't have. Important updates get buried in noise, and by the time you spot a trend it's already old news.

Who it fits

Best for founders, marketers, or researchers who need to track fast-moving industry news without babysitting a dozen sources.

How it works

  1. Every day, the system checks your list of X accounts, newsletters, and websites
  2. It reads recent posts, scans newsletter emails in Gmail, and browses websites for updates
  3. AI reviews everything, filters out anything old or repeated, and pulls out the useful facts
  4. Each finding is summarized with its source and date
  5. New updates are added to a running spreadsheet you can check anytime
What you get

Industry updates already summarized in one place

You get a running spreadsheet of the day's real AI industry news, already filtered, summarized, and sourced from dozens of accounts and newsletters.

What you get

An always-current spreadsheet of summarized trend updates with sources and dates.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, an OpenAI API key, and access to X and Airtop for web browsing.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
