QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

What people ask about PublicTide.

What is Aculeus?

Aculeus is the intelligence layer that reads the public record, keeps the documents it finds, and ties every finding to its source. Three products are built on it: Starglass, PublicTide and Equites.

Who is it for?

Starglass is for analysts, newsrooms and trade associations that need answers with the sources attached. Equites is for people who read filings before they read headlines. PublicTide is for independent creators and their readers. The layer itself runs for media groups, funders and platforms on their own record.

What is PublicTide?

PublicTide is the creator-owned publication network on the layer. Readers signal which stories deserve a closer look, creators decide what enters research, and every story names its source. A Morning Brief carries the finding, the strongest counter-case, and the sources.

How is this different from a general chatbot?

A chatbot gives you a fluent answer. The layer gives you a plan you approve before anything runs, a captured copy of the documents it cites, a citation that opens the document at the cited words, and a receipt that names what was searched and what was not.

All three products
