Altira / Wire
A new news platform for the AI age. In active development.
Wire monitors disparate sources, groups related material, and provides business news and data that matter to the reader. AI agents monitor sources in real time, while human editorial control and source curation shape what deserves attention.
Why? Emerging themes that later turn into headlines rarely begin in one place. A company's next move might surface first in a founder interview, podcast clip, launch post, hiring page, filing, niche blog, or X thread. At the same time, things are moving faster than ever before. Manual tracking of high-quality signals becomes increasingly challenging, and cutting through the noise to get to the heart of the story or the information that matters becomes more difficult.
Wire was born out of this problem. The result is a news and media platform with a company research layer underneath: follow the stories that matter, the companies and people you care about, and peel back the layers when you want to go deeper.
Wire combines media, AI-assisted editorial output, and company research in one product. The reader is not limited to passive headlines or a static company database.
Most business news treats each article as a standalone piece. Wire connects coverage to the companies, people, themes, and prior context behind it, so each story fits into a larger picture.
A traditional newsroom is limited by what people can monitor manually. A pure AI feed lacks judgment. Wire combines AI agents, curated source sets, and human editorial control to cover more ground without turning into generic summaries.
Most media disappears after you read it. Wire turns coverage into company context, themes, open questions, and future reads, so the system gets more useful as it follows the same companies and stories over time.
AI helps Wire expand the reach and pace of editorial research. Curated source sets, human editorial control, and verification standards shape what becomes part of the coverage.
AI agents watch curated source sets in real time for company developments, media mentions, quotes, source changes, and questions worth checking.
Related items can become stories, company context, themes, and research paths across news, social media, transcripts, filings, company pages, and public records.
Sources, uncertainty, contradictions, and editorial judgment stay visible instead of turning everything into a flat AI summary.
The screens below are design prototypes. They show the product direction: a media surface on top, company research underneath, and sources available when a reader wants to check the work.
A daily media surface for startup and technology stories, personalized areas of interest, and broader coverage worth tracking.
A company page that brings together the profile, recent changes, key people, source inventory, and claims behind the current read.
Live and recorded media can be transcribed, segmented by topic, and tied back to companies, people, quotes, and claims.
Beneath the media surface, Wire is building a research layer for companies, people, themes, comparisons, watchlists, and saved context. Company research pages are the current center of that layer; dossiers and AI-assisted briefs provide the deeper view when a story needs more context.
Open a company to see the current read, what changed, related people, sources, claims, and the context behind recent coverage.
When a story needs more depth, dossiers and AI-assisted briefs organize what Wire knows, what changed, and what still needs research.
Follow companies and people, return to saved context, compare entities, and keep research moving after the first read.
