Run more monitors. Read less noise.

Consumer tools send push notifications. Zipf delivers scored, structured signals to the systems your team already runs — Slack channels, webhooks, CRM pipelines, and AI agents via MCP. The output is programmable, not a black box.

The amount being read can grow by 100x to 1000x without forcing anyone to read 10x more. Monitors watch the web. Zipf turns that activity into infrastructure the organization can build on.

How it works

Describe what matters. Zipf handles the rest.

Zipf should read like an operating brief, not a feature catalog. The workflow starts with intent, keeps scanning in the background, and only interrupts your team when there is something worth acting on.

  • 01

    Set the monitor in plain English once.

  • 02

    Keep watch across the sources your team would normally check by hand.

  • 03

    Score every change for information gain and deliver structured signals to your systems.

01
Describe

Tell Zipf what to watch

Describe what matters in plain English — insider selling after a lock-up expiry, hyperscaler CapEx guidance, infrastructure deal announcements. Your monitors scan on the schedule you set.

  • Plain English setup — no code required
  • Daily, weekly, or custom schedules
  • Checks dozens of sources automatically
02
Scan

They understand what changed

Your monitors extract the specific fields you need — executive name, transaction volume, deal terms, contract duration. They detect meaningful changes, ignore noise, and deliver actual data — not a list of URLs.

  • Extracts the fields you define
  • Understands meaningful changes, ignores noise
  • Watches the pages your team would check manually
03
Signal

Scored, structured, delivered anywhere

Every execution gets a signal score (0–100) measuring information gain. Signals carry structured fields, source citations, and change deltas — not just a notification. Delivery goes to Slack, email, webhooks, or any AI agent via MCP and API.

  • Signal scores 0–100 quantify what matters
  • Structured JSON output, not just text summaries
  • Slack, email, webhooks, MCP, and REST API delivery

Real signals

What teams monitor with Zipf

From insider transactions to infrastructure deals to CapEx guidance, the output needs to be structured enough to brief humans and action systems without anyone digging through tabs.

These previews are the product, not decoration. The alert itself should carry enough context to move a team from monitoring to action.
