How often does AIQ update its monitoring data?
Quick answer
AIQ polls each of the eight engines daily and stores the full response history. New topics return first results within 15-20 minutes.
Polling runs daily for each engine on each topic, and the full response is stored along with cited sources, sentiment, and theme tags. For a newly created topic, the first results appear within 15-20 minutes: the initial round runs immediately on save and then the daily cadence picks up. The daily cadence is deliberate. AI engine responses change frequently enough that less frequent polling misses important shifts, and infrequently enough that more frequent polling rarely changes the picture meaningfully.
