Research infrastructure for digital assets

Most crypto research still happens in browser tabs. You've got CoinDesk open in one, the SEC EDGAR search in another, a Twitter list in a third, and a Google Doc where you're trying to stitch it all together. The research workflow is manual, fragmented, and slow. By the time you've compiled your analysis, the narrative has already moved.

Perception gives you a single interface for the entire research cycle. Search across 1,000+ sources simultaneously. Filter by entity, outlet, sentiment, date, language, or region. When you find something relevant, add it to a watchlist or export it to a brief. The data is already structured, sentiment-scored, entity-tagged, and connected to broader narrative trends, so you spend time on analysis, not data collection.

The research workflow is designed for how professionals actually work: start broad, narrow fast, go deep on what matters, then export findings in a format your team can use. Whether you're preparing a quarterly review, writing an investment memo, or building a competitive analysis, the research tooling adapts to your workflow rather than forcing you into a rigid process.

Research capabilities

  • Full-text search, Search article headlines and body text across the entire archive. Boolean operators, phrase matching, and smart synonym expansion (searching "BTC" also finds "Bitcoin").
  • Entity search, NLP-powered company and protocol search that's more accurate than keyword matching. Find Coinbase coverage even when articles reference "Brian Armstrong's exchange" or "the COIN listing."
  • Sentiment filtering, Filter results by positive, negative, or neutral sentiment. Sort by sentiment score to find the most bullish or bearish coverage on any topic.
  • Outlet and channel filtering, Narrow results to specific outlets (Bloomberg only), channel types (podcasts only), or exclude sources you don't trust.
  • Trend analysis, See which narratives are forming around your research topic. Every search result is connected to the broader trend graph, so you can follow a thread from a single article to the macro narrative.
  • Watchlists, Save search configurations and entities you want to track. Get updates when coverage patterns change or new narratives emerge around your watched topics.
  • Analyst data, Wall Street consensus, price targets, and recent rating changes for 70+ publicly-traded crypto companies. See where analyst sentiment diverges from media sentiment.

Built for professional workflows

Research briefs, Compile findings into structured briefs with citations. Useful for investment committees, board updates, and team sharing. Each brief links back to the original sources so anyone can verify claims or dig deeper.

Report builder, Generate formatted reports from templates: competitive analysis, market overview, entity deep-dive, or custom. Reports pull live data from Perception so they're always current when you present them.

AI-assisted research, Connect Perception to Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini via MCP (Model Context Protocol). Your AI can search our data, pull entity profiles, compare companies, and cite specific articles. This turns your AI assistant into a research analyst with access to real-time market intelligence. Ask "What's the media narrative around Tether this month?" and get a sourced answer in 10 seconds.

API access, For teams that build their own tools, the REST API provides programmatic access to search, trends, sentiment, and entity data. Feed Perception data into your internal dashboards, Slack bots, or quantitative models.
