Describe what to watch for. Sentinels never stop looking.

A Sentinel is an alert written in plain language. Tell it what matters, such as negative coverage of your CEO in tier-one media, and it watches news, social media and the web for you, around the clock.

Start from a template

Competitor Watch, Regulatory Watch and Stakeholder Profile get a Sentinel running in a minute. Describe what to watch in your own words and Omniscient generates the keywords. Every agent's volume, schedule and weekly credit use sit in one list.

Choose how thoroughly it checks

Scan matches on keywords. Sift adds classification to cut the noise. Verify investigates and vets each match before it alerts you. Each tier shows how many alerts and credits a week to expect before you switch it on, and keywords are generated in the languages your markets write in.

Alerts you can act on

Every alert arrives with a short summary, the analysis and the sources, by email, in Microsoft Teams or in Slack, and in the app's notifications.

Your sources, your language

Watch the whole web or restrict a Sentinel to the outlets you trust, with or without social media. Alerts come back in the language you wrote the Sentinel in.

Shared with the team

Share a Sentinel with up to 25 colleagues. They receive its alerts; only the owner can change it.

Frequently asked

How is a Sentinel different from a keyword alert?
A keyword alert fires on words. A Sentinel is written as an instruction, and at the Sift and Verify tiers it classifies and checks each match before alerting you, so you are told about events rather than mentions.
Where are alerts delivered?
By email, in Microsoft Teams, in Slack, and in the Omniscient app.
Can OmniAI set up a Sentinel for me?
Yes. Ask OmniAI to watch something and it creates the Sentinel from your conversation.
