D1
D1 appears in 7 analyzed articles across the measured technology press. Recent coverage is easing, counting every mention over recent months. This page shows the public snapshot: movement, coverage mix, recent sources, and what drove the latest change.
Compass measures press coverage, not D1's product quality, business performance, or market value.
Counting every mention, coverage of D1 is easing — it appears in 7 analyzed articles across the technology press.
What D1 coverage is made of over time: story type, claim stage as reported, and press framing. This measures the coverage, not the product.
Across 7 classified coverage items, one item is 14 percentage points — read the shares below as the shape of a small sample, not as figures precise to the point.
Story type and claim stage are shares of the 7 classified coverage items in this window.
How to read this
The stream below stacks each month's coverage by the lens you choose: Tone (how the press frames the story — promotional, skeptical, critical, or neutral), Story type (launches, funding, lawsuits, partnerships…), or Stage — how far the reported claim has gone: speculation → announcement → launch → results.
Taller bands mean more coverage that month; the dots beneath mark notable non‑neutral events. Every signal is sourced and dated.
How this is counted — why the article numbers differ
7 articles mention D1 across the corpus. The coverage make-up above is measured on the 4 of them that were read into dated, classified coverage items — and one article can produce more than one item, because story type, claim stage and framing are read separately.
- partnership Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance joined forces with Zeals to sell policies for D1 users.
- launch Zeals introduced the D1 in Tokyo.
12 posts on company and project channels mention D1 across the full 15-month record. They come from any company or project channel Compass reads, not only D1's own. They are counted separately from the 7 press articles.

Press coverage and company and project posts are two separate counts. Every press figure on this page, including the monthly line and the rising or falling call, comes from the independent press only. Before October 2026, Compass counted these posts as press coverage. How this is measured.
