Real-time intelligence for energy and defence traders monitoring the Iran/Gulf crisis
The Problem
Conflict-driven markets move in seconds. Your current setup was built for a slower world.
The terminal was built for financial data, not conflict intelligence. By the time a headline hits BN, OSINT Twitter had it 8 minutes earlier.
Scrolling through thousands of tweets hoping to spot a signal is not a strategy. You need every headline scored, ranked, and surfaced automatically.
Reuters tab, Bloomberg tab, Twitter tab, TankerTrackers, FlightRadar, OPEC calendar. By the time you switch, the algo already traded it.

FAQ
No. Intel Desk is an intelligence aggregation tool. It surfaces publicly available information and scores it for sentiment. It does not provide financial advice, trading recommendations, or any form of regulated investment guidance. Always do your own research.
All feeds refresh every 30 seconds. Market data streams in real-time via Finnhub. From the moment a headline is published to when it appears on your dashboard is typically under 60 seconds, often under 30.
Custom portfolio configuration is coming soon. Currently, Intel Desk is focused on energy and defence instruments, covering the key tickers, commodities, and equities most affected by the Iran/Gulf situation.
