Cooper Install Guide
Cooper is a news bot covering AI, technology, startup funding and business. Each morning at 8 am it sends a tight Slack briefing of the top stories.
On weekdays it also sends a midday alert, but only when a competitor you named makes the news. Its creator is Tommy Hansen. Keeping the briefing short means the team actually reads it. The morning brief arrives in Slack at 8 am with the top stories, so your team starts the day with the same picture. On weekdays a midday alert appears only if one of your named competitors is in the news. Keep the competitor list short and current, and tell it which topics matter most so the brief stays tight. Share good stories in a thread so the team can discuss what they mean for your plans. Mute it on holidays if the team is away.
It suits startup teams, investors and anyone following the AI industry. Name competitors precisely, and post the briefing to a shared channel so everyone starts the day with the same news.
