Can AIQ support rapid, short-term crisis monitoring?
Yes. Topics spin up in minutes, first data arrives in 15-20 minutes, and the platform is built to scale up during a crisis and wind back down once the situation stabilizes.
Yes – this is one of the highest-value use cases. A new topic can be configured in under five minutes, and the first round of AI responses comes back within 15-20 minutes. During an active situation, a comms team can stand up topics for the specific narrative threads they are tracking (a contested claim, an emerging frame, an executive name appearing in stories), watch daily as the AI engines absorb or reject each narrative, and identify which sources are driving the picture. Once the situation stabilizes, topics can be paused or removed and the subscription scaled back. We use this internally on every crisis engagement we run.
