Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can I get a research brief on a breaking story?
Deep Research synthesizes information from multiple sources and returns a structured brief within seconds to a couple of minutes depending on the complexity of the topic. For breaking news, start with the News tool for the latest verified reports, then use Deep Research for historical and contextual background.
Can these tools replace a dedicated fact-checking team?
These tools accelerate research and verification but are not a replacement for editorial judgment and primary source confirmation. Company Lookup and Compliance Screening verify registrations and sanctions data from official sources. Deep Research synthesizes publicly available information. Critical on-air claims should always have a human verification step before broadcast.
How accurate is the financial market data?
Stock Market and Finance Data tools pull real-time data from financial data providers. Prices reflect near real-time market conditions (typically a 15-20 minute delay for certain markets). For live broadcast, confirm major index values with your station's licensed data feed before quoting exact figures on air.
Can the audio transcription tool handle accented or fast-paced speech?
Audio Transcriber supports 99+ languages and performs well with a range of accents and speech patterns. For press conferences with overlapping questions or very fast speakers, accuracy is high but not perfect — always review transcripts before using direct quotes on air.
Is there a way to monitor multiple news sources simultaneously?
The News tool can search across multiple topics and sources, and you can run multiple parallel searches. For continuous monitoring workflows, set up repeating searches on specific keywords or subjects to catch new developments as stories evolve throughout a broadcast day.
