Monitoring that tells you what it means

Truescope doesn't just collect coverage. It codes every item against your own framework, answers your questions about it, and puts the results wherever your team works.

New

Enrichment Agent: your analysis framework, applied to every story

Describe what matters to you in plain language. Truescope suggests the scores, tags and summaries, you approve them, and every matching item is coded automatically as it arrives.

Score coverage for relevance and impact, tag it against your key messages, reputation drivers or risk levels, and write summaries to your own brief

A relevance check runs first and filters out off-topic coverage, with the reason recorded

Results become filters in the Inbox, dimensions on dashboards and fields in reports and alerts

How did coverage of TrueAuto's charging network change this week?
Truescope Analyst
Coverage rose 64% on last week. Charging network was the leading key message, in 41% of items, driven by long weekend queue stories in Melbourne and Sydney. Risk severity peaked at Medium on Monday, and sentiment recovered by Tuesday after TrueAuto announced new sites.

Questions from teams moving from Streem

How is Truescope different from Streem?

Both cover the core Australian media types. Truescope adds AI that explains what each story means, combines mainstream and social media in one platform, and puts no caps on searches, results or report templates. And Truescope is 100% Australian-owned, with your data hosted in Australia.

Is Truescope Australian-owned?

Yes. Truescope is 100% Australian-owned and headquartered in Sydney. Our founders built one of Australia’s first media monitoring platforms.

Where is our data stored?

All Truescope data is hosted in Australia, in Amazon Web Services’ Sydney region. Your searches, coverage and reports stay onshore.

Will we get the Australian coverage we have today?

Truescope covers every major Australian media type (print, online, TV, radio, podcasts and social media) in one feed. We hold the key content licences, including News Corp Australia, Nine, Australian Community Media and Copyright Agency. Your demo runs on your own searches, so you can check the sources you rely on.

Can Truescope monitor media outside Australia?

Yes. Truescope ingests millions of media items every day from around the world, with comprehensive coverage across all major markets, including a significant Chinese media feed through Uniwyse. Australian and international coverage sit in the same platform, so your local and global monitoring, alerts and reports all run from one place.

Are we locked into a long contract?

No. Truescope has flexible terms with no multi-year contracts or auto-renewal, and our pricing is published on our website.

Is there a limit on searches?

No. Search as much as you want, whenever you want, with no caps or restrictions.

What does Truescope AI add to media monitoring?

Truescope Assistant summarises coverage the moment it’s published. Truescope Analyst turns your questions into cited answers, in minutes, so you can report to leadership with evidence behind every point.

Can we tag coverage against our own key messages?

Yes, automatically. Describe your key messages, issues or risk levels in plain language, and Truescope tags and scores every matching story as it arrives. Those tags and scores work across the whole platform: as filters in the Inbox, dimensions on dashboards, and fields in reports and alerts.

How does Truescope keep our coverage relevant?

Out of the box, Truescope’s Boolean search is on par with the search engines other media monitoring providers use. On top of that, you can add an automated AI relevance check that reviews every matching story against your own brief, records why it is or isn’t relevant, and acts on the result, such as keeping off-topic coverage out of your feed, reports and alerts.

How does Truescope measure sentiment?

Truescope scores sentiment at four levels: the whole story, each organisation or person mentioned, each sentence and each key phrase. For sentiment that follows your own rules, such as what counts as positive or negative for your organisation, you can add an AI enrichment that scores coverage to your brief. Its result then replaces the standard story sentiment across the platform.

Can we see Truescope on our own coverage first?

Yes. Book a demo and we’ll walk you through Truescope using your brand, your competitors and the Australian sources that matter to you.
