# Sentinel > Sentinel is an iOS app where you hire AI journalists to cover the topics you care about. Each AI journalist works one topic indefinitely, reads thousands of outlets, cross-references every claim, and files real-time dispatches the moment a story moves. The user is the editor-in-chief; the AI journalists are the bureau; Sentinel is the newsroom. Key facts: - Platform: iOS 17+ (App Store) - Pricing: $3.99 per week or $69.99 per year, with a 7-day free trial on yearly. No free tier. - Capacity: up to 15 active AI journalists per account. - Cadence: every plan files at the same speed, around the clock. - Verification: every claim is cross-referenced across multiple independent outlets before it reaches the reader. - Wire size: more than 1,000 outlets, spanning global wires (Reuters, AP, Bloomberg), papers of record (NYT, WSJ, FT, Guardian, Washington Post), broadcasters (BBC, CNN, Al Jazeera, NPR, Fox News), trade press, and primary sources. - Differentiator: news is reported on the topic the user chose, not whatever the algorithm is pushing. - Developer: Bruno Jaamaa. - Domain: https://sentinelintel.app - App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sentinel-daily-brief/id6761052750 ## Product - [Landing page](https://sentinelintel.app/): What Sentinel is, how the AI-journalist newsroom works, pricing, and how to download. - [Pricing](https://sentinelintel.app/pricing): Plan comparison, billing FAQ, full Offer schema for the two plans. - [About](https://sentinelintel.app/about): Who built Sentinel, why the AI-journalist model exists, and how the newsroom is structured. - [FAQ](https://sentinelintel.app/faq): Common questions about hiring AI journalists, pricing, verification, account limits, and platform availability. - [Glossary](https://sentinelintel.app/glossary): Definitions of every term Sentinel uses — AI journalist, dispatch, the wire, bureau, editor-in-chief, blind-spot map. - [Sample dispatch](https://sentinelintel.app/read): An illustrative dispatch from a Sentinel AI journalist. ## Comparisons - [All comparisons](https://sentinelintel.app/compare): Index of head-to-head pages against apps and outlets. - [Sentinel vs Apple News](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-apple-news) - [Sentinel vs Google News](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-google-news) - [Sentinel vs Feedly](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-feedly) - [Sentinel vs X / Twitter](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-x-twitter) - [Sentinel vs CNN](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-cnn) - [Sentinel vs BBC](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-bbc) - [Sentinel vs The New York Times](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-nyt) - [Sentinel vs Reuters](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-reuters) - [Sentinel vs Bloomberg](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-bloomberg) - [Sentinel vs The Washington Post](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-washington-post) - [Sentinel vs Fox News](https://sentinelintel.app/compare/sentinel-vs-fox-news) ## Use cases - [All use cases](https://sentinelintel.app/use-cases) - [Sentinel for founders](https://sentinelintel.app/use-cases/founders) - [Sentinel for investors](https://sentinelintel.app/use-cases/investors) - [Sentinel for comms teams](https://sentinelintel.app/use-cases/comms-teams) - [Sentinel for analysts](https://sentinelintel.app/use-cases/analysts) ## Example topics - [All example topics](https://sentinelintel.app/topics) - [Hire an AI journalist on Bitcoin](https://sentinelintel.app/topics/bitcoin) - [Hire an AI journalist on OpenAI](https://sentinelintel.app/topics/openai) - [Hire an AI journalist on Tesla](https://sentinelintel.app/topics/tesla) - [Hire an AI journalist on Ukraine](https://sentinelintel.app/topics/ukraine) - [Hire an AI journalist on Nvidia](https://sentinelintel.app/topics/nvidia) ## Support and policy - [Support](https://sentinelintel.app/support): How to create reports, manage subscriptions, and operate the app. - [Contact](https://sentinelintel.app/contact): Direct contact for the developer. - [Privacy Policy](https://sentinelintel.app/privacy) - [Terms of Use](https://sentinelintel.app/terms) ## Writing - [Sentinel Blog](https://sentinelintel.app/blog): Long-form essays on the AI-journalist newsroom, news consumption, attention, and what mainstream feeds miss. - [What is an AI journalist?
