Detailed Review

Signal AI is a media intelligence company. Its about page says it was founded more than 13 years ago, combines discriminative and generative AI to deliver insight, and serves 800+ customers from four global offices. It is aimed at organisations that make decisions on the strength of news and information, not at individual readers.

The legal page and footer name Signal Media Ltd, with a registered address at Floor 4, The Script, 44 Featherstone Street, London EC1Y 8RN, United Kingdom. The contact page also lists offices in New York, Lisbon and Hong Kong, so check which entity signs your contract. The United Kingdom is in Europe but outside the EU.

No prices are published, and the company number was not read. It is a sales-led enterprise product, so a small team will meet a demo request before a price.
