Solutions — Communications

Know it before it's news.

For communications, PR and public-affairs teams: surface weak signals early, develop them into topic candidates, and walk into the editorial conference with an evidence-backed brief.

Overview

Comms and public-affairs teams live or die by timing — knowing a regulator, competitor or narrative is moving before it's a headline. Blinkin gives that beat a ranked morning view, a human-gated path from weak signal to topic candidate, and briefings where every claim cites its source.

Feature

A newsroom sensor

Track regulators, competitors, trade press and public sentiment across every source type — RSS, article lists, single-page watches — in one ranked morning view, powered by Radar.

Feature

From signal to story

Early access

Promote a pattern into a topic candidate with a thesis, a "why now", and a decision question. Every step is human-gated and on the record, so the newsroom's judgment stays in charge.

Feature

Briefings that cite themselves

Generate a topic brief where every claim links back to the coverage behind it — so the brief survives the first hard question in the room.

A day in the loop

A day with Blinkin

Morning

Before the editorial conference, a comms lead opens the ranked morning view. A regulator's consultation sits at the top with the reason it surfaced; a since-last-visit summary catches up on the two things that moved overnight.

Midday

A weak signal about a competitor is promoted into a topic candidate — thesis, "why now", decision question — each step logged. The team chats over the collection to pressure-test the angle.

End of day

A briefing is generated for tomorrow's leadership meeting, every claim linked to the coverage behind it. Nothing in it rests on memory; all of it can be checked.

Questions

FAQ

Where do the signals come from?

From the sources you follow — regulators, competitors, trade press — across RSS, article lists and single-page watches, ranked by Radar.

Is the signal-to-story step automated?

It's human-gated and in early access. Blinkin proposes the structure; your team makes every promotion decision, on the record.

Can I trust a generated briefing in a meeting?

That's the point of citations — every claim links back to its source coverage, so the brief holds up when questioned.

Do you have a named customer reference?

Not yet publicly. The health-insurer reference is a marked placeholder pending permission; we don't show names or numbers we can't attribute.

How current is the morning view?

It reflects what your sources have published, ranked so the items that matter surface first, with a since-last-visit summary for what changed.
