Radar monitors twelve global system categories daily, identifies cross-category pressure clusters, and delivers a signal-grounded intelligence brief before anything else reaches your desk.
There is a particular kind of meeting that happens in most organisations at least once a quarter. Someone has pulled together the relevant data. The slides are clean. The people in the room are experienced and paying attention. And yet somewhere in the middle of the discussion, a question gets asked that nobody can fully answer — not because the information is not available, but because the information available does not quite add up to a picture.
Silicon Valley Bank did not collapse suddenly — the structural vulnerability was visible in its own filings for anyone watching at the right level. The Ever Given did not create the vulnerability in global supply chains. It found it. The inflation cycle of 2021 was not a surprise at the level of the system — freight rates had been climbing for months, producer prices in China were moving, the signals were distributed across systems that no single actor was holding simultaneously.
The pattern is always the same. The event is the release of something that has been building. The pressure was accumulating before the headline arrived. Radar exists to read that pressure before it releases.
Every day, Radar runs a full pipeline across twelve global system categories, applying a strict two-criterion signal test to every headline retrieved, identifying cross-category clusters, and producing a daily intelligence brief grounded in the signal record.
Real signals from April 12, 2026. Each names the mechanism, the number, and the implication — not the event.
Real outputs from the Radar pipeline — not demonstrations, not simplified examples. Generated from the April 2026 signal dataset.
All tiers include the full Radar pipeline, daily intelligence brief, interrogation terminal, and document generation. You supply your own Anthropic API key — Radar absorbs all search costs.
Twenty-seven years in uniform, much of it at sea, some of it in command. The ocean does not wait for your reporting cycle. The threat does not announce itself on a schedule that suits your staff process. You learn, in that environment, that the quality of your decisions is largely determined before the moment of decision — by the quality of your reading of what is building toward it.
After the Navy: a startup in the cryptocurrency market of the mid-2010s, where the people who navigated it best were reading the system beneath the market — the leverage concentrations, the structural fragilities accumulating invisibly behind the performance. Then consulting to Navy capability, where an institution I knew intimately was not reading its own system — not because the people making decisions lacked intelligence, but because they had no systematic way of reading the system at the level where the real information lived.
Radar and Compass exist because I built them to solve a problem I was experiencing in real time. Pressure — How to See What's Building Before It Breaks is the book that makes the argument. The tools are the operational form of that argument.
