Frequently asked questions

How does Dailyn choose the stories?

Dailyn’s analysis engine screens the week’s reporting for relevance, deduplicates overlapping coverage into distinct dated events, and ranks those events by significance, source corroboration and recency. The highest-ranked events form the core of the weekly briefing.

Where does every fact on this page come from?

Every line is a fact taken verbatim from a single dated article, and that article is linked in the same row. Nothing on the page is written or inferred beyond the article set.

Does AI write this page?

The analysis engine extracts facts, entities and figures from the week’s reporting, and the editorial synthesis is generated from that event data. Published claims remain traceable to the underlying reporting.

How often are these pages updated?

A new briefing is issued for every ISO week, and the key-numbers section is refreshed with it. Each page states the exact window of dates it covers.

Methodology

How this page was built

Dailyn’s analysis engine processes everything its monitored sources published this week: it deduplicates overlapping coverage, clusters reporting into distinct dated events, extracts the companies, deals and figures involved, and ranks the results by significance, corroboration and recency.

1

Briefing published

Events ranked by significance, corroboration and recency.

Every line on this page is a fact taken verbatim from a single dated article, with that article linked in the same row. Nothing on this page is written or inferred beyond the article set.

Duplicate reports of the same event are collapsed to one entry; the corroborating-source count says how many outlets carried it.

Dates are publication dates. Where an article states a different date for the event itself, that date is shown first and the publication date in brackets. A date the article gives for something still to come is shown as "due".

A figure is listed exactly as the article reported it. Figures are not converted, rebased, summed or compared across articles.

Every event stays linked to the reporting it was built from.
