Frequently asked questions

What exactly do I get each morning?
The free daily brief: every new FCC equipment authorization filing from the previous day, with the company behind it and a plain-English description of the product. Pro adds watchlist alerts and the Friday deep-dive on top.
What is a watchlist alert?
You give us the companies or keywords you track, like "Apple" or "Wi-Fi 7 router". When one of them files, you get an email that morning with the filing details and links to the exhibits: photos, test reports, manuals. Nothing you track filed, no email.
What is the weekly deep-dive?
Every Friday, Pro subscribers get a closer look at the week's most interesting filing: what the product appears to be, based on the actual exhibits, and which documents are worth opening.
Is there a free trial?
A 7-day free trial is coming with our next backend update. Right now, subscribing starts paid immediately, and you can cancel anytime by replying to any email.
How do I cancel?
Reply to any email and it is done, no login or phone call needed. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
Why trust FCC filings as a signal?
Companies must get equipment authorization before selling wireless devices in the US, so filings surface hardware months before launch. Filings are public legal records, and the exhibits are primary documents, photos and test reports filed by the manufacturer, not rumors.
Who is this for?
Journalists covering hardware, product managers tracking competitors, analysts and investors watching for launches, teardown researchers.
