Built for the desk that has to file before the firm calls anyone back. Every posting is in the Index the morning it goes live, the cross-firm pattern is already scored, and the record-of-origin URL is one click from the brief.

"By the time the firm sends the announcement, half the desk has already seen it on LinkedIn. The scoop is in what they're hiring next, and that's a job posting, not a press release."
Firms announce hires and group expansions on their own clock. The job postings that signal the expansion go live weeks earlier and are public from day one.
Combing 11,068 active postings by hand is unworkable. The pattern — three new postings in the same sub-practice at the same firm in the same market — is invisible without a graph.
A tip needs corroboration before legal will clear it. The Index is the corroboration: an originating record, timestamp, and the path back to the posting page.
A queryable graph of every active posting, refreshed at 04:00 UTC, with a record-of-origin URL on every row and a copy-ready brief generator on every story.
A reverse-chrono feed scoped to the firms, practices, and markets you cover. Each row carries a Copy headline, Copy 50-word summary, and Copy sourcing footnote action.
Webhook payloads carry an embargo_until header set per-account. Park the brief, file when the embargo lifts.
Every posting in the Index carries the originating URL and capture timestamp. Editors clear it the same way they clear a quote: by following the link.
Surface the firm that posts a brand-new role taxonomy first — "Director of AI Governance," "Head of Restructuring Analytics," "Of Counsel · Deepfake Litigation" — and watch which competitors copy the shape over the next 90 days. The story writes itself.
