A laptop in the shop’s back office at dawn, showing AI News Pulse’s subscriptions hub: “Every way to buy AI.”

What it does

  1. 01

    One story, every outlet

    An item about an event already on the wire joins that story instead of repeating it. Each story lists every outlet that ran it, and a lab’s own post takes the lead link.

  2. 02

    Every number names its source

    Six boards refresh from the Artificial Analysis API every six hours and keep their history. The rest name the board or lab they came from, and lab-reported scores say so.

  3. 03

    Every way to buy AI, side by side

    The subscriptions hub lists 62 plans from 17 providers, 36 of them coding plans, each with its price, its limits and links to the provider pages it came from. Limits a provider doesn’t publish are labelled opaque.

  4. 04

    A daily brief, with or without AI

    Once a day a brief picks the most important stories of the last 24 hours, one line each, with its own feed. Claude writes the stories under a daily budget; when it’s off or over budget, simple rules write them, and each story says which one did.

The thing to see

One plan on the subscriptions hub: Claude Pro at $20 a month, how its limits reset, the models it includes and the provider pages the entry came from. Live site, Oct 21.
