Pricing for evidence you can cite.

Compass turns technology coverage into sourced signals, dashboards, and briefing-ready reports — so you can see what's gaining attention, what's fading, what's connected, and why.

Every paid subscription runs on the same evidence-backed measurement layer. Choose based on whether you need the app or the API, one seat or a team, and how much reporting, watching and exporting you do.

🚀 Launching soon. and we'll email you the moment it's live.

One-time purchase · not a subscription
$19 A single briefing-ready report 1 full report · one topic

One topic, fully unpacked — what the coverage is made of, what changed, how it's framed, and every cited source. Yours to keep and cite. No subscription, no recurring charge. It's the exact report Pro generates — Pro just includes 10 of them every month (plus alerts and 15 months of history).

🚀 Launching soon. No charge yet — this adds you to the waitlist.

Why history is the valuable part. A baseline isn't just old articles — it's coverage measured the same way, against the same corpus, month after month. That's five quarters on record — a full year plus the current one — so every read can measure this quarter against the same quarter last year. Compass already holds that rolling history; your subscription unlocks it immediately and keeps including each new month as the shared corpus accrues.

Put Compass measurements into your own app, model, or pipeline.
Not a stream of pages — a stream of measurements. Coverage endpoints deliver stories already classified by story type, claim stage, and framing; every signal is scored against the topic's own history. The interpretation layer is done before it reaches your pipeline.
  • Classified events — story type, claim stage, framing, per entity
  • Baselined — each signal carries its normal, so your system can tell unusual from loud
  • Source-linked — every measurement resolves to the dated articles behind it
  • Ingest-ready JSON — movers, emerging, connections, per-entity
  • No dashboards or generated reports — Plus is the plan that includes the API alongside both

All recurring plans are billed monthly — cancel anytime. (The one-time report is a single charge, not a subscription.) Annual billing is coming soon.

Tiered by what you do with Compass — never by the quality of the data. Every paid plan sees every measurement and every evidence drill-down. What scales is capacity: saved relationship maps, armed alerts, export volume, run history, seats, and API access. Compass is launching soon — join the waitlist and we'll email you the day it opens.

Questions

What does Compass actually measure?
How much the tech press is writing about a topic, which direction the coverage is moving, which companies and technologies get covered alongside it, and — crucially — what kind of stories the coverage is made of and how far the claims have actually progressed. Every number drills to the real headlines behind it.
Is this financial or investment advice?
No. Compass reports measurements over a technology-news corpus — never predictions, verdicts, or buy/sell signals. It tells you what the press is saying and how it's saying it; the judgment stays yours.
What's the $19 report?
A one-off, sourced brief on a single topic — coverage trend, framing split, what the coverage is made of over time, and every cited source — with no subscription. A low-commitment way to see the instrument do real work.
What's a "State of X" lens report — and how is it different from the $19 report?
The $19 report covers one topic. A "State of X" lens report covers a WHOLE lens or topic set — coverage leaders, momentum, what's covered together, and how concentrated attention is, every figure source-linked. It's a separate monthly allotment from the single-topic reports: Pro includes 2 lens reports a month, Plus 10, and a Free account can view the public sample lens reports.
Do you have an API?
Yes — two ways. Signal Feed (API) ($59/mo) is the standalone, API-only plan: a scoped, programmatic JSON feed for developers who want to pull the coverage measurements into their own app, model, or pipeline (no dashboard). It runs alongside a free account. Plus ($199/mo) includes the production-scale API alongside the full UI and team seats — so if you want dashboards and the API, that's one plan, not two. The endpoints and a sample response are public — see the API docs at /compass/api.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, from Account → Billing. Upgrades take effect immediately — you pay only the prorated difference for the rest of the month, and your billing date doesn't move. Downgrades start at your next renewal, so you keep everything you've already paid for until then.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Pro, Plus and Signal Feed (API) are month-to-month and cancel anytime from Account → Billing — one button and one confirmation, on our own site.
What's the Overnight?
The daily side of the instrument. Every morning, /compass/overnight shows what moved in technology coverage yesterday — day-level surges, firsts and returns, and the week's risers — counted overnight, cited and dated. It's public. Signed-in users also get a since-your-last-visit brief on their home page, and Pro and Plus can look up any topic's day, every day, and filter everything. Day-level counts are early and noisy; verdicts stay monthly.
What happens to the open topics if I never pay?
Nothing — they stay free forever, no card, no trial clock, and they carry the full 15-month record: we chose those subjects, not how much of the instrument you get. A free account also lets you look up any topic with the last 30 days of coverage, run 1 full report a month, and watch 2 topics; Pro is what unlocks the full 15 months of history, 10 reports a month, and scale.
Do I need to talk to sales?
No. Compass is entirely self-serve — pick a plan, pay by card, and you're in. (Teams larger than three seats can reach out for a custom arrangement.)
Account availability varies by region — Compass accounts, free and paid, aren't offered in the EU/EEA, the UK, Türkiye, or mainland China. Every public page stays open everywhere. Where the Services are offered →
Billed monthly. Cancel anytime. Paid plans renew automatically until cancelled; cancellation stops future billing and access continues through the current billing period. Card handling by Stripe.
