Topic Monitor

Stop Searching.
Start Knowing.

You shouldn't have to hunt for the news that matters.

// The problem

You shouldn't have to hunt for the news that matters.

You care about specific topics — AI models, regulation, funding rounds, your industry, your competitors. But staying on top of everything means checking dozens of sources daily: news sites, Reddit, arXiv, Twitter, funding databases. You miss things. Important things. And you find out too late.

Google Alerts sends you everything that matches a keyword — including noise, duplicates, and irrelevant content. You still have to sort through it all. That's not monitoring. That's busywork.

Zenfox Topic Monitor watches the web around the clock. It scores every item for relevance, importance, and novelty — and alerts you only when something genuinely important happens. No noise. No duplicates. Just the signals that matter, delivered on your terms.

// Alert levels

Three Alert Levels. You Choose.

Set the sensitivity per topic — from breaking-only to full coverage. Change it anytime.

Breaking Only

Breaking Only

Only major events: product launches, large funding rounds, regulatory decisions, acquisitions. Sent immediately. Best for topics where you only care about game-changing events.

Important + Breaking

Important + Breaking

Significant developments: research papers, strategic hires, notable posts — plus all breaking news. Batched into your digest, with breaking alerts sent immediately.

Everything

Everything (Digest Only)

All relevant items above the noise threshold, grouped in your daily or weekly digest. No immediate alerts. Best for staying broadly informed without interruptions.

// Beyond alerts

Beyond Simple Alerts

01

Cross-Topic Intelligence

Zenfox looks for connections across all your topics. When two separate topics produce related items, it generates a synthesized insight explaining what the connection means for you.

02

Weekly Trend Reports

Every week, Zenfox measures how active each topic was vs the previous week — volume changes, dominant themes, and a trend summary so you can spot inflection points early.

03

Deep Research Handoff

When an alert catches your attention, just say "dig into this." Zenfox hands it off to Deep Research and returns a full structured report with sources.

04

Smart Filtering

Duplicate stories, old content re-shared, tangentially related articles, low-engagement posts — all filtered out before they reach you. You see each story once.

// FAQ

Common Questions

How is this different from Google Alerts?

Google Alerts sends you everything that matches a keyword — including low-quality, old, or irrelevant content. Zenfox scores every item for relevance, importance, and novelty before deciding to surface it. It also generates contextual insights, connects your topics together, and adapts to your personal profile.

How often does Zenfox scan?

You choose the interval: every hour, every 6 hours, every 12 hours, or daily. Breaking alerts are always sent immediately regardless of scan frequency.

Can I add a topic in any language?

Yes. You can monitor topics in English, French, or any other language. Zenfox will search in the language of your keywords.

Will I get flooded with notifications?

No. The scoring system filters aggressively. Most items are batched into digests. Only genuinely breaking news triggers an immediate alert. You can also set any topic to digest-only.

Can I monitor my own brand name?

Yes. Add a topic like "mentions of [your company name]" and Zenfox will track news, Reddit posts, social mentions, and other references across all monitored sources.
