what changed, with the sources

What sources do you monitor?

Sentinel continuously monitors 1,000+ open sources: general and specialist press, institutional and regulatory sources, official journals, statistics portals, social networks (LinkedIn), podcasts and videos. Every new signal is analysed by our AI pipeline within the hour. For paywalled press (Financial Times, The Economist, Bloomberg, Politico…), the BYO extension available from the Firm plan lets you integrate your existing subscriptions without ever sending your credentials to our servers.

I already run my monitoring with ChatGPT or Claude. What does Sentinel add?

For a one-off question, an AI assistant is genuinely useful. For monitoring you pass on to others, it lacks the essentials. It reruns a web search each time, so coverage changes from day to day. It reads neither your press subscriptions nor LinkedIn. Nothing checks roles, dates or attributions before you forward the result. Sentinel reads the same 1,000+ sources every day, including your subscriptions through the extension, checks names, roles and dates, links every statement to its article, and delivers a note under your brand. And if you want to keep Claude, the MCP server (Firm plan) gives it access to your watches.

Where is my data hosted, and is Sentinel Briefing GDPR-compliant?

All data is hosted exclusively on Hetzner servers in Germany (EU). We never sell or share your data with third parties; a signed DPA (Data Processing Agreement) is available for Team, Firm, and Enterprise plans. You can export or permanently delete your data at any time from account settings.

What happens to my press subscription credentials?

You enter your credentials once in the browser extension, which runs entirely inside your own browser, your logins are never transmitted to our servers. Sentinel uses the extension to fetch content from paywalled sources on your behalf; we store the resulting article text, not your credentials. You can revoke access at any time by uninstalling the extension.

How do you prevent AI hallucinations in briefings?

Every note explicitly cites its sources, and the full list of analysed articles, with links, remains available in the app. Our pipeline summarises and structures: it never writes a fact absent from the collected sources, and a verification engine checks sensitive points (roles, dates, entities). All AI-generated content is clearly labelled as such in the interface and the deliverables.

Can I use Sentinel deliverables in client-facing reports?

Yes. The white-label PDF export (Team plan and above) strips all Sentinel branding so you can present briefings directly to clients under your own logo. You can customise the cover page, header, and footer. Your clients see your analysis, not our tool.

What API and export capabilities are available?

The Firm plan includes full REST API access to retrieve briefings, alerts, and source data programmatically. Analyses export to CSV in one click, and every note or analysis exports to PDF. Source-list export is on the roadmap. API documentation is available at sentinelbriefing.com/docs.

Is there a commitment? Can I cancel at any time?

There is no lock-in. Monthly plans can be cancelled anytime with no notice period; you retain access until the end of the paid month. Annual plans can be cancelled within the first 30 days for a pro-rata refund.

Can I migrate my sources from Feedly or Inoreader?

Yes. You can import any OPML file directly from account settings, the standard export format from Feedly, Inoreader, NewsBlur, or any RSS reader. Your watch profiles are populated immediately after import, with no manual re-entry.

In what languages can I receive briefings?

Sentinel produces briefings in French, English and Italian, with the output language set per watch profile. The output language is set per watch profile, independently of the language of your sources. You can monitor English sources and receive a French-language summary, for example.

How quickly can I get started?

Account setup takes under 5 minutes: create an account, configure your first watch profile, and add your sources. Sentinel runs its first analysis pass within the hour; your first morning briefing arrives by 7 a.m. the following day. No installation is required beyond the optional browser extension for paywalled sources.

What support channels are available, and how fast do you respond?

All plans include email support with a response time under 24 hours on business days. Team and Firm plans include priority support with a 4-hour response time. Institution customers benefit from priority, dedicated support.

Who owns the briefings and notes produced by Sentinel?

You do, entirely. The content Sentinel generates from your sources belongs to you and your organisation. We do not use your briefings, sources, or queries to train AI models, and we do not share them with other customers.

Are AI usage costs included in the subscription price?

Yes. Your subscription covers all AI inference costs, there are no per-query charges, no token meters, and no surprise invoices. The ceiling depends on your plan: note cadence (weekly on Solo, daily and weekly on Team and Firm), the number of watch profiles (3 on Solo, 15 on Team, unlimited on Firm), the analyses quota (500, 2,500 and 10,000 per month) and the quota of transcribed podcast/video episodes (10, 50 and 200 per month).
