How it works

SlowBull turns the firehose of business coverage into a ranked, de-duplicated feed. Here's what happens between an article being published and it showing up here.

1. We gather coverage

We continuously read the public feeds of business outlets across the web - news desks, market wires, research sites, company blogs and financial columns. We only ever ingest what publishers make available in their feeds: headlines, short summaries, a link and, where offered, an image.

2. We cluster it into stories

Many outlets cover the same event. We group articles that are about the same story into a single cluster, so an earnings beat or a merger that twenty sites reported becomes one entry instead of twenty. Clustering compares the wording of each headline and summary; a second article from the same outlet has to clear a much higher bar to join, so formulaic, repeated templates don't merge unrelated stories.

3. We rank by coverage, not by us

The default order isn't editorial. A story's rank is driven by how many independent sources are covering it, decayed by how recent the latest coverage is - so a story that many outlets picked up in the last few hours rises to the top. You can switch to Latest for a pure reverse-chronological view at any time.

4. We tag companies and sections

Each story is automatically tagged with the companies it's about (Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Tesla) and sorted into a section - Markets, Earnings, Tech, Deals, Economy or Policy - so you can filter to exactly what you follow.

5. We track hype

We snapshot how coverage of each story grows over time. Stories gaining sources fast are flagged as Surging or Rising in the Movers rail, so you can see momentum, not just recency.

What we don't do

We don't republish full articles, and we don't claim the reporting as ours. Every headline links to the original source, and each story credits the outlets covering it by name. The synthesis line on a story page is generated only from how many outlets cover it and a representative excerpt - never by copying an article. Nothing here is financial advice.
