Capabilities
Political intelligence
Follow a position over time across interviews and debates. Where the record holds two positions that disagree, both are shown and both are cited.
You get: a position tracked across the years it was stated.
Open political intelligenceBusiness and economic intelligence
Budget statements, policy interviews and market commentary read as one body of evidence rather than separate programmes.
You get: what was said on a policy, with dates and speakers' roles.
Open business and economicVideo search and clip generation
Search reaches the spoken line, not the episode title. Any cited moment can be cut as a clip and sent for licensing.
You get: a clip that starts on the sentence you searched for.
Open clips and licensingLive fact checking
A claim is checked against the standing record and returned with the earlier statements that bear on it, each one cited to the broadcast it came from.
Check any claim against the archive today; live checking follows live indexing.
