The intelligence cycle · 1 of 6

Direction

You decide what the platform cares about. Requirements come first, and everything downstream — collection, scoring, reporting — is answerable to them.

What you can do

• •Requirements in three tiers — Priority Intelligence Requirements at organisation, sector and global level. Collected items and generated reports are scored against them, not against a generic feed.
• •Industry sets, preloaded — Requirement cassettes for maritime, healthcare, financial services, energy and education load at onboarding, so your first week starts from a real collection plan.
• •Your wording, your ranking — Rewrite a requirement in your own language and it re-ranks what surfaces beneath it. The phrasing is not decoration — it drives retrieval.
• •Curate the stream — Choose sources, boost what matters with priority keywords, exclude what does not, and tag as you go so nothing becomes unfindable later.
