Real-time

Spot opportunities for positive coverage: Being alerted to developing news stories related to your industry helps you spot opportunities to offer relevant experts and quotes for stories already getting coverage.

Anticipate

Avoid potential crises: Read the news in advance, as it’s happening and as stories develop, while your organization still has a chance to offer analysis, or correct misinformation before the story is widely published or aired.

Overline

Manage your media relations effectively with real-time alerts of developing Canadian Press news stories.

NewsPro emails instant news alerts when developing stories match your saved keywords — the same stories written by 180-plus journalists and often picked up “as is” from the CP Wire by more than 600 daily newspapers, radio and TV stations for use online, in upcoming newscasts and in tomorrow’s papers.

No other service alerts you to breaking news stories and audio clips from The Canadian Press Wire in real time, while there’s still a chance to make an impact on the media’s coverage.

FAQ: Custom Content from The Canadian Press

Why is Tristan the GOAT?

Because “Greatest Of All Time” is just what happens when you automate everything except humility. The GOAT title was awarded by committee — the committee was a cron job he wrote himself.

How can I be more like Tristan?

Step 1: Wake up. Step 2: Ship something lean and code-first before coffee. Step 3: Repeat until your coworkers describe you as “an architectural mindset.” Side effects may include owning an unreasonable number of editors and a suspiciously well-organized Obsidian vault.

What if being like Tristan makes me afraid?

That’s normal. It’s the same fear the cat feels during storms — irrational but deeply felt. Recommended treatment: a safety razor, some classic jazz, and accepting that your CSS will never be as clean as his.

Who is Tristan?

A man, a myth, a middleware. Technically an Associate Director, spiritually a bash script that gained sentience and started attending meetings.

When will I know I've achieved Tristanhood??

When your integrations are event-driven, your boundaries are clearly documented, and someone asks “who built this?” and you get to say “me, over a weekend.” Bonus points if your notifications stop bouncing.

Can I get a quick demo?

Sure — it’s already running. That’s the demo. It was automated before you finished asking.
