Perception is the narrative record for digital assets: what media, analysts, and insiders say about your company and your competitors. It monitors 1,000+ sources across digital asset media, social, earnings calls, and filings in real time. Everything gets sentiment-scored and trend-clustered. You access it through the dashboard, connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini via MCP, or build on the API. Board updates, competitive reports, earnings analysis, minutes instead of hours, with full citations.

Who is Perception for?

Professionals who answer for the narrative: • PR, comms, and marketing teams tracking coverage of their company and rivals • IR teams preparing board updates from coverage and earnings • BD and strategy teams watching which accounts are in motion • Agencies running multiple clients from one record • Fund analysts, family offices, and journalists using the same data

What sources does Perception track?

1,000+ sources including Bloomberg, Financial Times, CoinDesk, The Block, Bitcoin Magazine, Reddit, X, GitHub, YouTube, podcasts, and mainstream outlets like NYT, BBC, CNN, and Reuters. Full list available on the

What can I create with Perception?

Board updates, competitive positioning reports, earnings call summaries, interview prep briefs, stakeholder communications, and more. All include full source citations you can verify.

How much does Perception cost?

Perception is $249/month (or $199/month billed annually) and includes the full dashboard, unlimited company and topic tracking with alerts, and MCP + API access at 20 credits/day across 16 tools, including entity profiles and media radar. Perception Intelligence is $499/month (or $399/month billed annually) and raises that to 100 credits/day, makes every call cost a flat 1 credit however much data you ask for, and opens all 31 tools: full-text articles, regulatory search, scenario analysis, hiring data, and the earnings, insider and capital-exposure suites, plus priority support.

Can I try before I buy?

Yes. Every signup starts with a 14-day free trial with full Intelligence-tier access, no credit card required. Set up your own watchlist and explore everything before deciding.

Are reports unlimited?

Yes. All Perception subscribers get unlimited reports, briefs, tracking, and alerts. No usage caps.

How is this different from Google Alerts?

Google Alerts tells you something was published. Perception tells you what it means: sentiment, narrative context, competitive positioning, and how it connects to everything else being said. Plus, Perception covers sources Google doesn't index, podcasts, earnings calls, analyst research, and social. And we generate cited deliverables you can actually use.

How is this different from ChatGPT?

ChatGPT turns your question into a few Google searches and summarizes what ranks on page one. Page one is content written to rank: rewritten press releases, aggregator sites, contributor columns. The signal in digital assets lives elsewhere: SEC filings, earnings call transcripts, conference keynotes, the 400+ active X accounts that actually drive narrative, paywalled Bloomberg and WSJ pieces the crawl can't reach. Perception reads those sources continuously and structures the output into a queryable corpus with 15 years of history. ChatGPT is the interface. Perception is the data layer underneath it. Connect us directly to ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini via MCP and get AI grounded in real-time, cited data.

Does Perception work with ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini?

Yes. Perception connects to all major AI platforms via the MCP protocol. Ask questions in natural language inside ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and get answers grounded in 1,000+ real-time sources with full citations. Set up takes under a minute.

What are the MCP rate limits?

Both plans include MCP and API access, each with its own daily allowance: 20 credits/day on Perception ($249/mo), built for daily research sessions, and 100 credits/day on Intelligence ($499/mo), enough for scheduled agents plus live research. There's also a free tier: connect the MCP without a subscription and get the 14 core tools at 5 credits/day. On Free and Perception, a call costs 1 to 3 credits depending on the tool, and bulk result pulls add more, capped at 10 per call. On Intelligence every call costs a flat 1 credit no matter how much data it returns.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. You can cancel your subscription directly in the app, no emails or phone calls needed. Your access continues until the end of the billing period you've already paid for.

Can I provide feedback or request features?

Yes. Email support or use the in-app feedback button. User input shapes the roadmap.

The Perception Index

The digital asset narrative, indexed daily.

One score for how the world is talking about digital assets, computed every day since 2011. Here it is live, tracked against Bitcoin’s price.

Loading the index…

21%

Mostly independent of price

Regress the Perception Index on trailing price returns and they explain 21% of it. The other four fifths come from what sources are actually saying.

68%

Fear & Greed largely restates price

Run the identical regression on the Fear & Greed Index and price explains 68%. Most of what it reports back to you is the chart you were already looking at.

~3 days

Lead time on the Fear & Greed Index

The Perception Index turns about three days ahead of Fear & Greed, measured across 3,075 daily observations (t = 2.45).

2011

One formula, fifteen years

Computed daily from the archived corpus back to 2011, on the same formula throughout, so every point is comparable.
