Case Study: White Star Capital achieves real-time global business intelligence with Signal AI

How Signal has helped White Star Capital with business intelligence on its companies, competitors and the market as a whole

White Star Capital, a venture capital firm operating in five countries across three continents, needed a scalable way to monitor what was being said about its growing portfolio beyond basic news alerts. Google Alerts pulled in irrelevant results (e.g., articles about “dice” versus the company Dice), so White Star Capital turned to Signal AI’s platform — which uses AI and machine learning plus auto-translation and real-time alerts — to get more accurate, global coverage.

Signal AI set up and trained custom feeds, organized and tagged global content, and delivered real-time email alerts and translations so the White Star Capital team could act quickly. The platform uncovered previously unknown patent activity for a portfolio company, led the firm to begin tracking competitor patents, and was used to distribute a news summary during a critical 48-hour fundraising window; White Star estimates they’re using only about 25% of Signal AI’s capabilities, with clear improvements in PR visibility and competitive intelligence.
