Discovery Engine

Find What's Trending Before Your Competitors Do

AI aggregates signals from 31+ sources and scores every content opportunity by velocity, brand relevance, and competition gap. No more guessing what to post next.

AI Scoring

Weighted Scoring System

Every signal is evaluated against four weighted criteria. The weights are customizable per Account, so each client gets scoring tuned to their industry and goals.

Scores update continuously as new data arrives. A topic that was a 72 yesterday might be a 91 today if velocity spikes. The system automatically re-ranks and re-prioritizes without manual intervention.

From Signal to Content Brief in Minutes

When a topic scores above the account's threshold, the Discovery Engine automatically creates a content bucket with platform-specific briefs.

Discovery Engine FAQ

How quickly does the Discovery Engine detect new trends?

The engine runs aggregation cycles every hour across all 31+ sources. Trending signals with high velocity are flagged for immediate review within minutes of detection, with notifications sent to the relevant account team.

Can I customize the scoring weights for different clients?

Yes. Each Account in the platform can have its own scoring configuration. You can adjust the relative importance of velocity, brand relevance, competition gap, and historical performance based on the client's industry and content strategy.

What happens when a trend is detected but doesn't match any client?

Unmatched trends are stored in a global trend index visible at the Organization level. Agency owners can use this index to prospect new clients or identify expansion opportunities for existing accounts.

How does competitor scraping work without violating terms of service?

Competitor monitoring only collects publicly available content metadata such as post types, engagement counts, and posting frequency. No private data is accessed. The system analyzes patterns, not content, to identify strategic gaps.
