Categories
Eight questions. Hold the ones that change your week.
Each category is a question we answer for you every morning — with a verdict, the effort, and the sources. Free holds one. Pro holds four.
01 · Security intelligence
Are we affected, or aren't we?
Thousands of advisories a week, matched against the versions you actually run. Both answers arrive equally loud, and a Critical never appears on one source alone.
- Exposure is one of three states — affected, not affected, version unknown
- Critical items are corroborated twice before you see them
- The fix line names the order to patch in
A card in this category
A patch release closes a remote-execution hole in the request parser you run at the edge.
02 · Opportunity scanner
Something just became possible.
When a release opens a door, we say what could now be built, who would want it, and roughly what it would take — with the guesswork labelled as guesswork.
- Sized in effort, not in hype
- Tied to something you already run
- Speculation is marked, never implied
A card in this category
Streaming responses landed in the runtime you deploy on — the waiting screen you built around it can go.
03 · Competitive intelligence
They shipped. Should you care?
Every move by the companies you watch, answered yes or no with a reason. The answer is usually no, and we will say so rather than pad the brief.
- Watchlists you control, not a trending page
- A verdict before you open a changelog
- Repeat announcements collapse into one card
A card in this category
A company on your watchlist moved its free tier behind a waitlist. Nothing you ship depends on it.
04 · Cost optimization
You're paying for something you stopped using.
Price changes, better tiers and cheaper equivalents — each with the number, the assumption behind it, and what switching would actually cost you.
- Every figure shows its working
- Migration effort is priced in, not left out
- Savings under a threshold you set are not shown
A card in this category
A tier you sit just above dropped its floor. At last month's usage you would save about a fifth.
05 · Technology advisor
Should we move from this to that?
Six dimensions, every one answered or openly marked unknown, weighed against what you already have rather than against a general audience.
- Includes the reasons not to move
- Compares against your versions, not the latest
- A dimension we can't source stays blank
A card in this category
Five of six dimensions favour staying. The sixth — long-term support — is not stated by the vendor.
06 · Learning assistant
Teach me this by Friday.
A seven-day path with a real exercise and a checkpoint every day, built only from sources we have already verified. No streaks, no badges — just Friday.
- Every day ends in something you made
- Built from the corpus, not from the open web
- Falls back to five days if the week is short

Day 3 of 7 — replace your polling loop with the streaming primitive, then measure the difference.
07 · Startup radar
Who's early, and does it matter?
New companies, new funding, new categories — filtered to the ones close enough to your world to be worth ten seconds. Unconfirmed numbers say they're unconfirmed.
- Proximity to your stack decides inclusion
- Rumoured rounds are labelled, never rounded up
- Ten seconds each, capped at three a day
A card in this category
A two-person team shipped a drop-in replacement for the queue you run. Six weeks old.
08 · AI chat
Just ask.
Ask in your own words. Every answer carries its sources — and when we don't have something, you get “I don't have that” instead of a guess.
- Answers only from the verified corpus
- Knows your stack, so “we” means you
- A confident wrong answer is worse than none

“Which of our pinned versions are inside an advisory range this month?” — four, three of them internal only.
