Research Radar: Auto Briefings

New: cited summaries + live X posts on any topic you follow — on the cadence you set. Pay-as-you-go credits never expire. No subscription.

You have a list of topics you care about — SpaceX launches, OpenAI rumors, central bank policy, a competitor's product launches. Getting a current read on any of them means opening four tabs, scrolling past noise, and still wondering what you missed on X.

Research Radar does the reading for you, on a schedule you set.

WHAT YOU GET

AI Research Summary Perplexity Sonar searches the live web and synthesizes a 200-word briefing for your topic: • Fresh results — not cached, not last week's headlines • Inline citations — every claim links to its source • Scheduled delivery: daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly • On-demand update anytime with a swipe

X Post Summary xAI Grok scans what people are actually saying on X right now: • Real-time social pulse, not news wire aggregation • Useful for topics where the discussion moves faster than the articles • Runs in parallel with the research summary, same update

Push Notifications When a summary is ready, a notification arrives with a preview sentence: • Tap to open the full summary directly • No badge counts, no inbox — just the topics you defined

iCloud Sync Your topics and summaries sync across all your iOS devices automatically via iCloud.

PROACTIVE, NOT REACTIVE

Perplexity, ChatGPT, and Arc Search are reactive — you ask, they answer. Research Radar is proactive. You define your topics once, set a cadence, and summaries arrive without you asking. The difference matters if you follow a dozen niche topics and don't want to remember to check each one.

Google Alerts emails you raw links. Research Radar gives you a synthesized read in the app, with citations.

Feedly aggregates other people's articles. Research Radar generates fresh summaries that didn't exist before your update ran.

NO SUBSCRIPTION
