Track every move in your market

You can track any company, globally, regardless of whether they are public or private. Unlike traditional finance tools that rely on stock ticker symbols, Distill allows you to track early-stage startups, private companies, and niche international players just as easily as Fortune 500 companies. If the company exists and has a website, Distill can track it.

Distill provides a complete picture by combining media coverage with official company sources. We monitor:

• Major media outlets and trusted industry news sites.
• Local and regional news publications.
• Official company channels, including press releases, blogs, and investor relations pages.
• Medium and Substack feeds.
• LinkedIn company posts to catch product launches and leadership updates often missed by the press.

Google Alerts provides a raw list of links, often resulting in cluttered inboxes and repetitive headlines. Distill is an intelligence engine. It uses AI to:

• Group sources: If a story is covered by 20 outlets, we group them into a single card so you don't read the same headline 20 times.
• Summarize insights: We extract the key facts from both the media coverage and the official announcement.
• Filter noise: We automatically filter out low-value opinion pieces and duplicates.

Yes. You can track companies in any country. If a story breaks in a local language (e.g., Japanese, Swedish, or Portuguese), Distill automatically translates the article and summary into English. This allows you to track global competitors or international markets without a language barrier.

We know that "more news" isn't always better. Distill gives you three layers of control to keep your feed clean:

• Significance filters: You can toggle your feed to show "All News," "Notable News," or only "Major News" (high-impact events).
• Topic filters: You can set specific monitors for topics like "M&A," "Product launches," or "Executive changes" while ignoring the rest.
• Source blocking: If you dislike a specific publication, you can block it entirely from your feed and summaries.

Yes. In addition to tracking specific company watchlists, you can follow broad industry groups (e.g., Fintech, Artificial Intelligence, Renewable Energy). You can receive weekly emails summarizing the biggest events from that industry.

You do not need to log in to stay informed. Distill delivers insights where you already work:

• Daily recaps: Emails listing all the latest news from the companies you track.
• Weekly summaries: Emails summarizing the biggest events from the past week from the companies and sectors you follow.
• Real-time alerts: For critical updates on high-priority companies.
• Slack integration: Get real-time updates from the companies you follow directly in Slack.

Yes. Distill specifically monitors LinkedIn company posts. Companies often share their fastest updates on LinkedIn before a press release goes out, such as new hires, minor product updates, or partnerships. Distill captures these and presents them alongside traditional news.

Yes. Distill offers a 14-day free trial so you can set up your watchlists, configure your filters, and see the difference between a standard news feed and a curated intelligence feed. Just add the companies you want to track, and you're up and running in minutes.
