All company news in one place (Inside Distill – Part 1)

Keeping track of the companies that matter to your work shouldn’t be this hard.
Yet for most professionals, staying informed still means bouncing between press releases, blogs, media coverage, and reports – manually piecing together the story, hoping you’re not missing something important.
It’s a time sink. And it’s risky.
The problem: Company monitoring takes too much work
If you're a fund manager overseeing a broad portfolio or a corporate development lead preparing for a strategic review, you know how quickly key updates can slip by. The tools meant to help either leave blind spots or flood you with noise.
Search alerts are limited in scope and tend to miss smaller or private companies that don’t make mainstream headlines.
RSS feeds? Only a handful of companies even publish them – so you’re likely missing most of the updates that matter.
Add the hours of manual digging it takes to pull updates together, and the cost becomes clear: late reactions, blind spots in meetings, and lost opportunities.
The solution: Distill brings all company news into one place
Distill gives you a single feed with the most important updates from every company you track. It’s built to unify both media coverage and companies’ own announcements – so you see the full picture without hunting for it.
You get:
- News and updates from trusted sources and company channels
- Summarized insights so you can quickly understand what’s happened

It’s not just easier. It’s more complete.
