What is NewsDeck from OneSub?
NewsDeck is a news aggregation and monitoring tool that lets you track breaking news from multiple sources and create customised feeds based on your interests. Rather than scrolling through generic news sites, you can set up alerts for specific topics, keywords, or industries and receive real-time notifications when relevant stories break. The tool pulls from a range of news sources and compiles them into a single dashboard, so you can monitor what matters to you without information overload. It suits journalists, researchers, business professionals, and anyone who needs to stay informed about particular subjects without the noise of mainstream news feeds.
