ThermoNeural · Verified cold-economy intelligence
Priced in the open
Every story is confirmed by two independent publishers before it runs, and every claim carries a linked source. That is the edge — and it is the part the incumbents make you book a sales call to hear about. We put the price on the page.
The daily edition
Free — and it stays free.
The daily verified briefing is free to read, free to subscribe to, and ad-free. It needs no card and it never sits behind a paywall. Premium is optional: it adds the archive, alerts, translated editions and desk tools on top — it never takes the daily brief away.

What you are paying for
- 01
Two publishers, or it waits
A cold-economy story needs confirmation from two independent publishers before it runs. One outlet is a rumour; two is a fact.
- 02
Every claim carries its source
Each item lists the publishers behind it, linked. Premium adds alerting and structure — never permission to skip the check.
- 03
Reader-funded, not advertiser-funded
We take money from readers, never from the companies we cover. No ads, no sponsored stories, no press releases.
