Ubiquity

Ubiquity's AI agents can geo-tag hyperlocal sources (for congressional district, city, state, etc.), even when there isn't publisher metadata; adjust its search approach based on user feedback; and present organized findings for human analysts to review. This makes it possible to curate sets of high-quality, relevant data for a target geographical area in a fraction of the time needed for manual source curation. Ubiquity takes a natural-language search entered by a user (such as "bloggers and websites discussing local news in the Lancaster, PA area" or "social media influencers in Virginia") and uses it to independently create, run, and evaluate the results of numerous search queries—essentially doing for one analyst in under an hour what would take a small team several days running, refining, and re-running dozens of Google searches and evaluating thousands of results in order to find a meaningful dataset of local signals. Users can then choose to stream or export pipelines of data. You can also use Ubiquity's analysis bot, Ubi, to locate things like themes, patterns, shifts, or frequent topics within the set of sources you have approved. Ubi not only provides intelligent answers to queries about the data, but also provides sources for each conclusion that the analyst can verify and investigate. And because it is searching only within the bounded universe of sources your team has approved and is trained to tell you if there is insufficient information within the dataset to answer your question, Ubi is far less prone to hallucination than many similar tools available today.
