## Posts
- [What a news API source count really measures](https://opoint.com/articles/news-api-coverage-benchmarks): When a news data provider tells you they monitor 800,000 sources, that number sounds significant. The question worth asking is: 800,000 sources as of when, and how many of them delivered anything useful last week?
- [Build vs Buy a News Data Pipeline: The Real Cost](https://opoint.com/white-papers/build-vs-buy-news-pipeline): Getting a working news prototype running is easier than ever. Point an AI coding agent at a few sources, watch articles start flowing, and the demo lands.
- [Opoint vs GDELT for Risk and Compliance Use Cases](https://opoint.com/articles/opoint-vs-gdelt): 17 September 2026
- [Build vs buy news data: the prototype is the easy part](https://opoint.com/articles/build-vs-buy-news-data): Building a news crawler is not particularly difficult.
- [What is a news feed? Push and pull delivery explained](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-a-news-feed): A news feed is a continuous, structured stream of articles delivered to a platform or system as content is published, indexed, and processed.
- [Adverse media, sanctions and PEP screening: what is the difference?](https://opoint.com/learn/adverse-media-vs-sanctions-vs-pep): Sanctions screening, PEP screening, and adverse media screening are three distinct components of a compliance workflow.
- [What is PEP screening?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-pep-screening): PEP screening is the process of determining whether a customer, counterparty, or beneficial owner is a Politically Exposed Person, an individual whose public position or role creates an elevated risk of involvement in bribery, corruption, or money laundering.
- [What is sanctions screening?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-sanctions-screening): Sanctions screening is the process of checking individuals, companies, and transactions against official sanctions lists to identify parties that are prohibited or restricted from participating in financial activity.
- [How are entities tagged in news data?](https://opoint.com/learn/entity-tagging-in-news-data): Entity tagging in news data is the process of identifying and labelling the people, organisations, and locations mentioned in an article. Each entity is then linked to a canonical identifier so downstream systems can match coverage to known entities without manual disambiguation.
- [What is readership and media reach data in a news feed?](https://opoint.com/learn/media-reach-data): Readership and media reach data are metadata fields attached to news articles that indicate the estimated audience size for each piece of content.
- [What is article deduplication in a news feed?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-article-deduplication): Article deduplication identifies and groups syndicated copies of the same news story so downstream systems receive one event rather than hundreds of identical articles.
- [News API vs web scraping: which should you use?](https://opoint.com/learn/news-api-vs-web-scraping): A news API delivers structured, pre-processed news content through a programmatic interface the provider maintains. Web scraping retrieves raw content directly from news websites by parsing their HTML, typically using custom code your team builds and maintains.
- [How to choose a news data provider](https://opoint.com/learn/choosing-a-news-data-provider): Choosing a news data provider comes down to four things: coverage that matches your actual markets, delivery fast enough to act on, data that integrates cleanly with your systems, and commercial terms that hold up under scrutiny.
- [What are FIGI, PermID, and Wikidata identifiers?](https://opoint.com/learn/figi-permid-and-wikidata-explained): FIGI, PermID, and Wikidata are three distinct identifiers used to tag entities, instruments, and organisations in structured data systems. In a news data context, they appear pre-attached to articles alongside LEI codes, connecting news coverage directly to the financial and analytical systems that consume it.
- [What is a Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-a-legal-entity-identifier): A Legal Entity Identifier (LEI) is a unique 20-character alphanumeric code that identifies a legal entity — a company, fund, or other organisation — unambiguously across financial systems and jurisdictions.
- [What is structured news data?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-structured-news-data): Structured news data is news content delivered in a consistent, machine-readable format with standardised metadata attached, so it can be ingested, filtered, and processed programmatically without manual handling.
- [What is a good delivery latency for news data?](https://opoint.com/learn/news-data-delivery-latency): Delivery latency in news data is the time between when an article is published and when it arrives in your system. For most professional use cases, under ten minutes is the meaningful threshold. Under seven minutes is where monitoring and risk applications start to gain a genuine time advantage.
- [What is a news API?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-a-news-api): A news API is a programmatic interface that delivers structured, machine-readable news content directly into an application, platform, or workflow in real time.
- [How to do media monitoring](https://opoint.com/learn/how-to-do-media-monitoring): Media monitoring, done well, comes down to five steps: decide what to track, choose your sources, set up filtering, route the results, and review what you're catching.
- [Media monitoring vs media intelligence: what’s the difference?](https://opoint.com/learn/media-monitoring-vs-media-intelligence): Media monitoring is the tracking, collecting mentions of your organisation, competitors, or topics across the news. Media intelligence is what you do with those mentions: the analysis, context, and decisions drawn from the coverage.
- [What is news monitoring?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-news-monitoring): News monitoring is the practice of tracking published news for mentions of the people, organisations, topics, or events an organisation needs to follow, then delivering those mentions as they break.
- [What is media monitoring?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-media-monitoring): Media monitoring is the practice of tracking where an organisation, its people, its competitors, or its topics are mentioned across published news, then collecting those mentions in one place so teams can act on them.
- [What is KYB (Know Your Business)?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-kyb): Know Your Business (KYB) is the process of verifying the identity, ownership, and legitimacy of a business customer before and during a commercial relationship. It confirms a company is real, establishes who ultimately owns and controls it, and checks it against sanctions, watchlists, and adverse media.
- [What is the difference between CDD and EDD?](https://opoint.com/learn/cdd-vs-edd): Customer due diligence (CDD) is the standard set of checks a firm runs on every customer to verify identity and assess risk.
- [When is enhanced due diligence required?](https://opoint.com/learn/when-is-enhanced-due-diligence-required): Enhanced due diligence is required when a customer or transaction presents higher risk than standard checks can address.
- [What is enhanced due diligence?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-enhanced-due-diligence): Enhanced due diligence (EDD) is the deeper level of checks a firm runs on higher-risk customers, counterparties, and transactions, beyond standard customer due diligence.
- [How does news data help with supplier risk?](https://opoint.com/learn/news-data-supplier-risk): News data gives supply chain teams early warning of problems at their suppliers.
- [What is supply chain risk monitoring?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-supply-chain-risk-monitoring): Supply chain risk monitoring is the continuous tracking of news and events related to your suppliers, counterparties, and the regions they operate in, so that disruptions, regulatory actions, and operational incidents reach you early.
- [What is the difference between AML and KYC?](https://opoint.com/learn/difference-between-aml-and-kyc): AML (anti-money laundering) is the broad framework of laws, controls, and processes that firms use to detect and prevent money laundering.
- [What data sources does AML screening need?](https://opoint.com/learn/aml-screening-data-sources): AML screening relies on four main data types: sanctions lists, watchlists, politically exposed persons (PEPs), and adverse media.
- [What is AML screening?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-aml-screening): AML screening is the process of checking customers and counterparties against sanctions lists, watchlists, politically exposed person data, and adverse media to detect money-laundering, terrorist-financing, and financial-crime risk.
- [Is adverse media screening required?](https://opoint.com/learn/is-adverse-media-screening-required): Adverse media screening is not a standalone legal requirement in most jurisdictions, but regulators expect it as part of a risk-based approach to customer due diligence.
- [What is adverse media screening?](https://opoint.com/learn/what-is-adverse-media-screening): Adverse media screening is the process of checking a person or organisation against news and public sources to find negative coverage that signals risk.
- [Vibe-coded news pipeline: what breaks in production](https://opoint.com/articles/vibe-coded-news-pipeline): Takeaway: Before you trust a vibe-coded news pipelines, list the markets and languages your users actually care about, then check honestly how many your source list reaches. Code quality is irrelevant if it’s pointed at the wrong tenth of the world.
- [Where Stories Break First](https://opoint.com/white-papers/where-stories-break-first): This isn't a coverage checklist or a vendor comparison. It's a data-led guide built from Opoint's live monitoring across six real incidents, each showing exactly how far ahead local-language press outpaced international wire services.
- [News Intelligence for Investment Teams: A Practical Guide](https://opoint.com/articles/news-intelligence-investment-teams): You don’t need a quant desk, black box or algo-system to get value from news data. You need the right coverage, the right structure, and a clear idea of what you’re trying to do with it. Here’s how to build news intelligence for investment teams without building an infrastructure project.
- [From Headlines to Decisions: News Intelligence for Investment Teams](https://opoint.com/white-papers/news-intelligence-investment-risk-teams): News intelligence for investment teams is the practice of turning structured, real-time news data into signals that reach your workflow before the market does. This guide — From Headlines to Decisions — provides a practical framework for investment and risk teams who want to close the decision gap between when a story breaks publicly and when it reaches their decisions.
- [The News Monitoring Gap](https://opoint.com/articles/news-monitoring-investment-teams): Most investment and risk teams don’t have an information problem. They have a timing and structure problem. Here’s why news monitoring for investment teams is harder than it looks, and what it costs when the gap goes unaddressed.
- [5 Reasons Financial News Data Isn’t Working for You](https://opoint.com/articles/financial-news-data-investment-teams): Most companies aren’t short of financial news data for investment teams. They’re short of actionable news data that connects to their workflow. Here’s why the gap persists and what each fix looks like in practice.
- [Closing Detection Latency in Financial Crime](https://opoint.com/white-papers/detection-latency-financial-crime): When regulators ask that question, the answer reveals everything. Not whether your analysts are good at their jobs, but whether your programme had a visibility problem.
- [The Stories Your AML Programme Never Sees](https://opoint.com/articles/non-english-news-coverage-gaps): Adverse media coverage gaps are rarely visible until you look for them in closed cases. But once you do, the cost of the gap becomes hard to ignore. Investing in multilingual adverse media screening is then a straightforward conversation: the exposure is already in your case history.
- [Adverse Media Screening Without Alert Fatigue](https://opoint.com/articles/adverse-media-alert-fatigue): Adverse media alert fatigue is real. When analysts don't trust the alerts, the programme quietly fails. They stop reading summaries, batch-approve queues, and miss what matters because it's buried under noise they've learned to ignore.
- [3 FinCrime Detection Delays and How to Fix Them](https://opoint.com/articles/fincrime-detection-latency): This post covers three places where detection latency enters AML and KYC workflows, how to measure it with timestamps you already have, and how structured external signals can reduce it without adding noise.
- [Quantifind: Adverse Media to Power Risk Intelligence at Scale](https://opoint.com/case-studies/quantifind-risk-intelligence): For Quantifind, the answer is Graphyte™: an AI-based risk intelligence platform that fuses internal data with billions of real-time external signals, including public records, sanctions lists, corporate filings, and global news.

- [ESG Risk is Financial Risk](https://opoint.com/white-papers/esg-risk-is-financial-risk): ESG risk is financial risk. This white paper explores why environmental, social, and governance factors can no longer be separated from financial performance and enterprise resilience.
- [ESG Risk Monitoring: 5 Point Checklist for Buyers](https://opoint.com/articles/esg-risk-monitoring-5-point-checklist): ESG risk monitoring isn’t a nine-to-five affair. One tweet from a disgruntled ex‑employee, a local paper’s scoop printed in Portuguese, or a new rule slipped onto a regulator’s website after hours can knock billions off market value before your risk committee even logs in. FinTech and RegTech teams are therefore scrambling for better radar platforms that capture global signals and surface the relevant ones in time to act.
- [ESG Risk Radar: 5 Ways to Stay Proactive](https://opoint.com/articles/esg-risk-radar): Five ways to catch ESG risk early:
- [Strengthening FinTech’s ESG Risk Radar](https://opoint.com/articles/strengthening-fintechs-esg-risk-radar): Even minor issues can swiftly escalate into major ESG crises for FinTech firms. Here's how proactive ESG risk management can prevent small problems from turning into significant disasters.
- [Compliance: A Data-Driven Playbook](https://opoint.com/white-papers/compliance-a-data-driven-playbook): Compliance isn't a static checkbox, it's a dynamic, evolving process. Falling behind can mean hefty fines, damaged reputation, and costly remediation.
- [Building a Better Compliance Framework](https://opoint.com/articles/building-a-better-compliance-framework): In an era of rising regulatory scrutiny and global market volatility, business operations can buckle under the pressure to ensure regulatory compliance.

## Pages
- [Why Opoint](https://opoint.com/why-opoint): A large catalogue can remain large even when parts of it are no longer producing useful data. News sites close, move to new domains, change publishing systems, and stop publishing. That is why Opoint reports both the size of the monitored source base and what is actually arriving.
- [News monitoring for portfolio and risk teams](https://opoint.com/solutions/financial-services/portfolio-risk): The risk to a position rarely announces itself on the wire first. A regulatory action, a governance failure, or a supply disruption at a portfolio company breaks in the local press of the country where it happens, hours before it reaches the outlets everyone else watches.
- [Home (new)](https://opoint.com/): We capture 3.5 million articles a day and deliver them as structured, enriched global news data in under seven minutes on average. Not raw HTML to clean up later. Tagged, filtered, deduplicated content with entity and topic metadata, ready to plug straight into your platform. We tell you what was written, not what to think about it.

Opoint delivers real-time, structured news data in 135 languages, so your analysts can focus on insight, not on finding information
- [News Data for Investment Research](https://opoint.com/solutions/financial-services/investment-research): Your edge comes from knowing something the market hasn’t priced in yet.
