Open-source media intelligence & social listening — a self-hostable alternative to Talkwalker/Brandwatch, built on free data sources and Claude AI. - Scognamiglio1969/radar-intelligence






self-hosted social listening sounds great, especially the Claude integration for sentiment analysis. curious how it handles the noise from free data sources though.
@meralyarba57925 Thanks! That’s exactly what I’m hoping for. Radar is still evolving, and my biggest hope is that people will actually use it, contribute to it, and help it grow into a great open-source project. Feedback on the quality of the free data sources is especially valuable.
Finally tried Radar over the weekend and the self-host setup was smoother than I expected, only hit one dependency snag. The Claude-powered sentiment summaries on Reddit threads actually felt useful, not just generic.
@berkelzfx Thanks for trying it and for the detailed feedback! I’m glad the setup went well overall and that you found the Claude summaries genuinely useful. I hope you’ll stick around, open issues or PRs if you find anything, and help Radar grow into a solid open-source project.
Finally gave Radar a spin on my own server and the setup was surprisingly painless. Really liked how it pulls from free sources without locking the good stuff behind a paywall.
@rfan6fvt Thanks, I really appreciate it! Making it easy to self-host and keeping the core features free was one of my main goals. I hope you’ll keep using it, share ideas, and help the project grow as an open-source community effort.
