What it does
Brand Mention Monitor queries the official GDELT global news index to surface news and web mentions of any brand, keyword, or competitor. Each result comes back as a structured row — the matched query, headline, link, source domain, publication date, country, and language. It runs live against public news and web sources with no social platforms and no login to manage.
Who it's for
PR and comms teams watching coverage, competitive-intelligence and market researchers tracking rivals, and anyone wiring media mentions into reporting, alerts, or automated pipelines.

One row per mention, with these fields:
query // the brand/keyword matched

Sample input: {"queries":["Stripe","Shopify"],"timespan":"7d","maxPerQuery":25}
