FUTURE PROOF – BLOG BY FUTURES PLATFORM
Today’s fast-paced news cycle can be overwhelming. With volatile events and an ever-increasing amount of information to process, staying informed is more time-consuming than ever. Futures Platform’s new News Search feature is designed to give you a sharper focus with a carefully curated, future-focused news database. With our comprehensive selection of industries, regions and perspectives, you’ll never miss a beat.
Now, in addition to trend analyses authored by our team of futurists, Futures Platform users can search for news articles from external sources directly on Futures Platform.
Our news database includes 500+ trusted sources from around the world, such as major news outlets, magazines, science and research journals – all handpicked by our futurists. Futures Platform users can search for any topic and easily find relevant, future-focused information from a wide selection of reliable sources without having to sift through the noise.
A FUTURE-FOCUSED SEARCH ENGINE GROUNDED IN FORESIGHT
What makes Futures Platform’s news search different from Google and other search engines is its strong future focus. It follows advanced search queries that are custom-made based on our futurists’ research. There’s an individual search query for each of the 900+ trend cards available on Futures Platform.
As our team of futurists continuously add new trend and scenario analyses to our platform, they also design news search queries for each new card and regularly improve the existing queries. Currently, our database hosts over 1 million news items and auto-crawls hundreds of futurist-selected sources 24/7.
In addition, we have a strong fake news filter in place – all our 500+ news sources are pre-validated on the basis of reliability. We strive to include objective, trustworthy sources from around the world to provide our users with an abundance of different perspectives. Our team is continuously on the lookout for new sources, and we regularly add new trusted sources to our search engine.
