In short
As a freelance journalist, you handle the monitoring, the research, the interviews and the writing yourself. VerbatimAgent gives you a team of AI agents for every story. They follow your sources day and night, read your documents, find the people to interview and check your interviews live. The Writing agent writes in your style, with every fact tied to its source. VerbatimAgent works the same day, from €49.95 a month, VAT included.
Freelances often work on several stories for several publications. The hours spent transcribing or tracking down a contact are unpaid.
One project per story
You describe each story in plain words, and it becomes a project. The agents start at once. The Research agent searches the web and public registers, and reads every page it finds from start to finish. The Reading agent reads your reports, scans and spreadsheets, and answers with the exact page. The agents work on the project for hours or for weeks.
Monitoring your stories
The Monitoring agent watches hundreds of sources, day and night: the press, public registers, official decisions and the sites you add. It tells you about anything that changes a project, with the excerpt that proves it. A subject covered in the last 30 days is not suggested again.
People and interviews
The People agent finds the people who know, maps who worked with whom and drafts the interview request. The “Review and send” button shows you the message before anything goes out. The Prep agent gathers what the person has said before and the questions they will try to avoid.
In an interview, the “Start live” button transcribes every word and checks every sentence as it is spoken. When an answer contradicts your documents, the proof appears while the person is still talking. Quotes are copied word for word and linked to the transcript. A quote, a document or a contact can be marked OFF, which means you can use it without naming the source.
Your style and your sources
Verbatim’s style engine was developed with linguists. It learns your style from your published articles and measures dozens of features in them. A voice score, calculated without AI, compares every text from the Writing agent with your style. Every correction you make refines your style profile.
The Checking agent gives every claim a status: Supported, Contradicted, Not found or Checking. Verbatim records the origin of every line: you, the AI or a source. The record is ready when the AI Act requires it, and it goes with your DOCX and PDF exports.
Pricing
The three plans, Plus, Pro and Max, cost €49.95, €99.95 and €149.95 a month, VAT included. Each includes all the agents and differs in usage volume, with no AI usage billed on top. The free trial lasts 14 days, and you can cancel in two clicks.
Questions
Can I write for several publications?
Yes. You can create a secondary style profile from three texts, for example for a publication with its own tone.
What happens to my texts, my style and my sources?
They remain yours. Your content is hosted and processed in Europe and is never used to train third-party AI.
Can I follow my agents while out reporting?
Soon. The iPhone app will let you follow your agents, approve what goes out, listen in on an interview and read your daily briefing.
