About Tagtaly

News That Matters. Data That Shows It.

Tagtaly is a real-time news analysis platform built for modern newsrooms. We transform 500+ daily articles from major UK and US news sources into actionable insights: trending topics, sentiment analysis, viral story detection, and competitive intelligence. All automatically updated, completely free, and ready to use.

Our Mission

Tagtaly helps journalists and content creators spot what matters before the moment passes. We believe newsrooms deserve real-time intelligence about what's trending—so you can plan ahead instead of chase what's already everywhere.

The Problem We Solve: News moves fast. 500+ articles published daily across UK and US news sources. Most newsrooms react to what they see on social media. By then, the moment has passed. Tagtaly lets you lead instead of follow.

How Tagtaly Works

The Process

Scan

We monitor 500+ articles daily from major UK and US news sources to find what's rising.

Analyze

We identify topics, trends, sentiment, and momentum so you understand what's actually happening.

Share

You get clear, shareable insights delivered daily. No manual work. Ready to act on.

Our Core Values

Transparency

We believe in explaining how we work. Every algorithm, every classification decision, every data point is documented. Newsrooms deserve to understand their tools.

Accuracy

Automated analysis has limitations. We acknowledge them. Sentiment analysis can miss sarcasm. Virality prediction isn't guaranteed. We train users to think critically, not blindly trust algorithms.

Accessibility

Tagtaly is completely free. No paywalls. No premium tiers. No authentication required. Data journalism shouldn't be restricted to well-funded outlets. Every newsroom deserves access to intelligence.

Editorial Independence

We don't make editorial decisions for you. We provide data. You decide what matters. We show you what's trending, but you determine what's important. Data informs journalism; it doesn't replace it.
