Get the story before the press release.
Monitor the source — government pages, IR sites, court filings, NGO reports. Ovro flags the change that becomes the lede.
"Reading press releases as they cross the wire. Everyone else is reading the same release; the reporting becomes a race to publish first."
"Ovro flags the page change hours or days before the press release. Time to investigate, to call sources, to break the story before anyone else has it."
Step by step.
- STEP 01
Save the source page
Drop the URL into Ovro. The page is captured with a screenshot and indexed so future checks have a baseline to diff against.
- STEP 02
Tell Ovro what to watch
Pick how often to check (every few minutes, hourly, daily) and optionally describe what counts as a meaningful change. Ignore everything else.
- STEP 03
Get pinged on reporter inbox
Direct alerts to the reporter or desk responsible for that beat. A reporter covering health watches FDA pages; a reporter covering policy watches agency sites.
- STEP 04
Review when you have a moment
Each alert ships with the snapshot. Reproduce the original page state for fact-checking and citation.
"The best stories aren't in the press release. They're in the page that quietly changed three days before the press release."
The details.
Source-first reporting
Skip the wire and read the page directly. Stories scoop themselves.
Audit-trail snapshots
Every claim sourced from a watched page has a timestamped snapshot for fact-checking.
Beat-aware routing
Different beats route to different reporters. Each one gets only the changes relevant to their assignment.
