About Geotone
The measured pulse of global news.
Geotone tracks the volume, tone, and geography of world news coverage — turning millions of articles into live geopolitical risk signals for people and AI agents. When coverage of a flashpoint doubles overnight, when a country's press turns sharply negative, when a theme starts spreading across languages: those are measurable events, and Geotone measures them.
We are a derived-data publisher, not a news aggregator. We compute statistics about global news coverage and always link out to the original reporting. No article text is stored or republished, ever.
The site is built for analysts, researchers, journalists, students, policy watchers — and the AI assistants working on their behalf. Every dashboard has a machine-readable twin, and our derived data is licensed CC BY 4.0 to make citing it easy.
Data sources
Primary signals come from the GDELT Project. Enrichment comes from Wikidata, Wikipedia (CC BY-SA, attributed inline), the World Bank, UN OCHA ReliefWeb, and the Uppsala Conflict Data Program. The methodology page documents every formula.
