Track people, products, and influence networks

Follow AI thought leaders, products, founders, and the people behind them, then receive a prioritized research digest.

Add a watchlist, topic, product, or founder. Kollab searches X, YouTube, podcasts, blogs, papers, interviews, and news on schedule, dedupes the signal, and writes a prioritized digest.

Use it not only to track updates, but also to understand who shaped a product, who influenced a person, and which people are worth researching next.

Track people, products, and influence networks workflow visual
I want to build a people and influence research workflow and send a daily digest to my Telegram bot. People, products, or networks to track: 1. Sam Altman, OpenAI CEO. Prioritize podcasts, interviews, X posts, and public talks. 2. Ilya Sutskever, SSI founder. Prioritize research talks, papers, long-form writing, and company updates. 3. Andrej Karpathy, AI educator. Prioritize YouTube lessons, blog posts, and course updates. 4. [Product or company]. Identify the founders, key builders, advisors, investors, and people they frequently cite. Topics I care about: [for example AGI progress, model architecture, AI safety, open models, AI product trends] Every morning at 9: 1. Search for new content they published or were mentioned in during the past 24 hours across X, YouTube, podcasts, blogs, papers, and news. 2. For each item, extract the person, title, publish date, platform, original link, and a two-sentence English summary. 3. When the update mentions another person, company, paper, or project, explain the relationship and whether it is worth adding to my research map. 4. Judge how closely it matches my topics. Add a star to highly relevant items and explain why they are worth reading first. 5. Group the digest into Must read / Skim / Ignore and keep at most 8 items so the message stays short. 6. Send the final digest to Telegram. If there is no meaningful update, send a short status note instead.

How the workflow runs

Read through the workflow once, then swap in your own roles, sources, and outputs.

01

Define the research map

Add people, products, sources, and topics so Kollab knows which updates and relationships are worth keeping.

02

Search on schedule

Kollab checks X, YouTube, podcasts, blogs, papers, and news while filtering duplicates and low-value mentions.

03

Rank and map relationships

Long content becomes a short digest with priority labels, source links, influence relationships, and why each item matters.

04

Deliver to Telegram

The Telegram bot gets the digest on time, with a quiet status note when there is nothing new.
