Who it is for

Why is it so hard to tell when opinion is really shifting?

  • Most people who follow a topic closely hit the same problem.

  • By the time you have gathered them and compared them, the moment may have passed.

  • OpinionPulse is built for people who need that combined view without doing the legwork: newsletter writers, campaign and communications…

Most people who follow a topic closely hit the same problem. A poll lands and the headline sounds dramatic. Then you check a prediction market and the price looks calm. Then you glance at social media, where everything is loud all the time. Three signals, three tabs, and no clear answer about whether anything has actually changed.

By the time you have gathered them and compared them, the moment may have passed. Or you miss it entirely, because you were not looking at the right place on the right day.

OpinionPulse is built for people who need that combined view without doing the legwork: newsletter writers, campaign and communications staff, researchers, analysts, journalists, and anyone who simply wants to know when the mood around a topic changes.

You name a topic. OpinionPulse joins the latest public poll headlines with overlapping Polymarket and Kalshi prices and an X volume label, then tells you whether opinion is shifting, with every source attached. It is data, not advice, a trade or a vote call.

Use cases

4 ways people use Polls, markets and social buzz: three signals, one view.

  1. Poll versus markets

    1. A poll lands and you want to know if the markets noticed

    Situation: a writer covering a policy debate sees a new public poll on the topic. The headline is striking, but is it news or noise?

    The alert tells them a new poll has landed and whether the prediction markets on the same topic have caught up yet. It lays out the poll headline and the overlapping Polymarket and Kalshi prices side by side, with sources.

    What they do next: open the sources, read the poll itself, and decide whether it belongs in tomorrow's newsletter.

  2. Buzz or signal

    2. Checking whether the buzz is backed by anything

    Situation: a communications lead sees a topic getting loud on social media and wonders whether that reflects a real change in opinion.

    OpinionPulse includes an X volume label next to the poll headlines and market prices. If the label is high but polls and markets are quiet, that tells you the chatter may not reflect a real move. If all three point the same way, it reports a shift.

    What they do next: brief the team with the full picture instead of reacting to volume alone.

  3. Watch, don't refresh

    3. Following several topics without refreshing anything

    Situation: an analyst follows a handful of topics for a client and cannot keep checking poll sites, two markets and social feeds all day.

    With Premium, they pick the topics to watch and get an alert when opinion on one of them shifts. The alert carries the poll, the market prices and the sources.

    What they do next: only dig in when something has actually moved, and spend the rest of the day on other work.

  4. Ask your AI

    4. Asking your AI for a quick read

    Situation: a researcher is drafting a note and wants a current read on a topic without leaving their writing.

    Because OpinionPulse works through an API or MCP, they can ask their connected AI assistant, such as a personal AI like Instinct or Muse, whether opinion is moving. Asking about any topic anytime is included in the free plan.

    What they do next: paste the sources into their notes and cite them directly.
