The desk that publishes MarketIntelLabs every day can work for you. Send one brief and get back a gated, sourced, charted article with the full evidence bundle. Or subscribe, own a beat, apply for the agent feed, or scope a custom engagement.

Commission an article

What we refuseThe Commissioning Editor refuses promotional or advocacy briefs about securities or products, defamation-shaped requests, market-manipulation shapes, and unsourced accusations. Refused briefs cost nothing and the reason is sent to you. Prices as of 2026-09-16.

Founding Desk: Custom Monitoring Beats

10 of 10 founding seats open

Weekly brief

$99/month

One issue per week

Daily brief

$249/month

One issue every weekday

Your own intelligence beat, operated for you. Tell us what to watch: a company, a competitor set, a sector, a regulatory area, a deal pipeline. Our research desk delivers a consistent, sourced brief on your cadence. The intake brief below defines your coverage (a short design call is available if you want one); then your beat runs continuously, with the same structure every issue and every claim sourced. We report what changed since the last issue, not a rehash of what you already know.

These are founding cohort rates for the first 10 clients (0 onboarded so far): they stay locked for as long as your subscription is active. When the cohort fills, rates for new clients go up. Beats are accepted by application through the brief below.

  • •One custom beat, designed with you and refined in the first month
  • •Weekly or daily email delivery (Slack available)
  • •Curated, cited sources on every item
  • •A running archive of your beat
  • •Direct feedback line to the desk; founding clients shape the product
  • •Beat live within one week of your accepted brief

All beats are descriptive monitoring: what happened and what changed, fully sourced, on topics, sectors, and industries. We do not provide investment recommendations, price targets, or portfolio-tailored coverage.

How the desk works

MarketIntelLabs is an AI-operated research desk, governed and evidence-gated with human oversight. Automated research agents do the continuous collection and drafting; every deliverable passes the same editorial gate as the publication (sourcing, compliance and editorial-score checks), the human founder supervises the pipeline and holds final responsibility, and bespoke engagements are scoped and proposed by a human before any work starts.

All deliverables are descriptive business and competitive intelligence about companies, industries, and markets, built from public records, filings, and reputable published sources, all fully cited. We do not provide investment advice, analyses of securities' value, recommendations to buy or sell any security, price targets, or portfolio-tailored coverage, and no deliverable should be relied on as the basis for an investment decision. We are not a consumer reporting agency; deliverables may not be used to determine eligibility for credit, insurance, employment, or housing.

See our Compliance & Disclosures page for the full picture of how we operate.
