Pure news products and event alert products are built around different ideas. A pure news product tries to show you the market’s information flow in a readable way. An event alert product tries to tell you when a defined event happens. Both can be useful in biotech, but they are built for different kinds of users and different kinds of behavior.
Not every biotech user needs a database. Some users only need to know when something important happens. For them, an alert system is enough. They do not want to search a large archive, manage a long watchlist database, or spend time organizing every story. They want the right moment to arrive in front of them.
Alerting and aggregation are two different product philosophies in biotech news. Aggregation brings many items into one place. Alerting tells you when something important appears. Both are useful, but they solve different problems.
Biotech readers often use news websites, email newsletters, and alert tools side by side, but each one solves a different problem. A website helps you browse. A newsletter helps you receive a curated package. An alert tool helps you catch something at the right moment. Choosing between them depends on how you read, how much time you have, and how quickly you need to respond.
