u/Internal-Estimate-21

Been building a hobby site that pulls together a few things I personally find useful when watching markets.

It’s got links/signals around Polymarket, US House trading, OSINT feeds, market news and a few APIs that are useful for tracking what might be moving before it properly hits mainstream coverage.

Not trying to sell anything. No paywall, no signup, no course, no Discord funnel. Just something I’ve been tinkering with because I wanted one place to keep an eye on stocks, geopolitics, prediction markets and real-time risk signals.

Would be interested to know if anyone here finds it useful, confusing, pointless, missing something obvious, or if there are better data sources I should be looking at.

I’ll drop the link in the comments so I don’t break any rules. Have a go and be brutally honest

take a look. pull it apart. i just want to make it as indispensable as possible, if possible. so the only way to do it is with feedback. www.inteldesk.app made some massive changes over the last 2 months. we're making improvements all the time. with it all kicking off again in the ME. thought it was a good time to have people look at it.

Ive posted this a couple of time but have made massive improvements over the last month. It's a hobby.

It is basically an early warning for geopolitical risk - could be useful for traders.

Instead of having Reuters, Twitter/X, Telegram, shipping trackers, oil prices, gold, FX in sepearate tabs. It's all in one place.

Here's the speil - id love you try it out www.inteldesk.app

The dashboard is focused on areas like energy, macro, sanctions, chips, shipping and conflict, and says it checks 146 cited sources on a 20-second cycle, with a rule that it does not treat single-source claims as confirmed.

In plain English, it does four main things:

  • Watches breaking geopolitical news and ranks what matters.
  • Checks whether a claim is backed up, contradicted, or still just noise.
  • Shows the likely market relevance, such as Brent oil, WTI, gold, DXY, LNG, defence names and volatility next to the story.
  • Tracks physical risk signals, like vessels, aircraft, chokepoints, sanctions exposure and corridor pressure, especially around places like Hormuz.

The simplest comparison is:

It is like a stripped-down Bloomberg terminal for conflict, energy and sanctions risk, built for someone who wants to know what happened, whether it is real, and what market it could affect.

It is not really a general news site. It is also not a trading app or financial advice tool, which the site states directly.

The best layman’s line would be:

Intel Desk monitors global conflict, energy and shipping signals in real time, checks whether the news is credible, and shows what it could mean for markets before the story becomes obvious.
