Background Pack
A background pack for a story: timeline, key players, documents, numbers, past coverage and open questions.
Built for journalists starting a story.
Why this work is hard
Journalists starting a story spend hours on this by hand: finding the right sources, reading them, checking them against each other and writing up what matters. The work is repetitive, it is easy to miss something, and nobody can show where a claim came from.
Background Pack does that work as a GREP AI agent. It runs when you ask, and you can put it on a daily, weekly or monthly schedule. Every run delivers a sourced report, with every claim linked to its source.
