OSINT news API: monitoring Telegram and open sources at scale

For OSINT and security teams, the signal increasingly breaks on Telegram before it reaches a wire. NewsAgent Data ingests thousands of public channels alongside RSS, scores each item for urgency, and tags it by lean and country — so monitoring is a filter, not a scraping project.

Why Telegram matters for OSINT

Field reports, official channels, milbloggers and independent outlets post to Telegram in real time — content that web-only news APIs miss entirely because they can't read it. Scraping it yourself means session management, rate limits and flood bans. We handle that layer.

Direct API integration, not scraping

Channels are read directly, de-duplicated, and stored with original timestamps. Dead and fabricated handles are pruned automatically, so the roster stays clean.

Triage by urgency and lean

Every item is scored 0–10 for urgency and labelled with a 9-category political lean, so you can separate a confirmed mass-casualty event from routine commentary, and compare how state versus independent sources frame it.

Push, don't poll

Register a webhook and high-urgency items arrive at your endpoint within ~60 seconds, HMAC-signed, with urgency, lean and country already attached — feeding a SOC dashboard or an alerting pipeline without a polling loop.
