One week with a defence monitor.

One weekly run for an invented set of counter-drone suppliers, from sources to brief to your own tools.

What you receive

A brief like this, every week.

Each run reports only what changed, most material first. Every finding names its subject, says what happened and links to the record it came from.

Questions a monitor answersExamples from this sector
01
Which suppliers on our list won a US federal contract this month?
02
Did ownership or control change at any supplier since the last review?
03
Does any supplier, owner or director appear on the UK or EU sanctions lists?
04
Which competitors are under a merger review?

Official source coverage is strongest in the UK, with US and European registers where listed. Company announcements, filings and trade press found by search are kept with their links. Every finding carries an OmniaScore: a deterministic 0 to 100 measure of how strongly the evidence supports it.

How it fits your week

From the register to your own tools.

The monitor runs on its own schedule. Your team reads the brief, checks the evidence where it matters and moves the findings into the tools it already uses.

  1. Monday 07:00The brief arrives

    Email with a PDF attached: what changed across the supplier base since last week, most material first.

  2. Monday 09:00Check the evidence

    Open a finding in the workspace and follow the link to the contract award it came from.

  3. As it happensAlert the team

    An ownership change sends a signed webhook, which your automation posts to Slack or Teams.

  4. Supplier reviewPull it into the file

    Export the findings as CSV, or ask your AI assistant over MCP for every change at one supplier.

Email and PDF

The brief lands in the inbox of everyone on the monitor, with a PDF for committee packs.

Excel, Power BI or a warehouse

Findings export through the API as CSV or JSON Lines. Every row keeps its source link, date and OmniaScore.

CRM

Company records export in Attio's import format, or as CSV for Salesforce and HubSpot.

Slack, Teams or an internal system

A signed webhook announces each material change, so your automation can route it. We register the endpoint with you.

Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants

An MCP connection lets your team's AI assistant query the workspace and cite the findings.

Your own documents

Add private documents to a monitor, and they are read alongside the public sources.

Connect an AI assistant with the MCP setup guide. Read how private documents are stored and kept apart in Security and data handling.
