Coverage Mix
What is the tech press actually covering about a technology, product, or company — and how is it moving? Coverage Mix maps every cited story by what kind it is (launches, deals, lawsuits, benchmarks…), how far the claims have progressed, and how the press is leaning, over time. A read on the conversation, never a verdict on the technology.

How to read this. The stream charts the make-up of the coverage over time,
drawn from our longitudinal corpus of the technology press. Each coloured band is a slice of the
conversation and its height is how much coverage that slice drew that month — so you can watch the
emphasis shift. Switch the lens to read it three ways: by press tone (neutral stays
calm; promotional, skeptical and critical stand out), by story type (launches, deals,
lawsuits, benchmarks…), or by stage (how far the reported work had progressed, speculation up
to benchmarked results). Nothing here judges whether the technology is good — it's a measurement of
the coverage, and the full instrument links every figure to its sources.
