Capability 04

Source Health. Keep the signal engine honest.

Source Health measures which sources are fresh, which phrases are producing real opportunity, where coverage is degrading, and which parts of the market you are blind to right now.

Most signal systems rot quietly. Sources go stale, language changes, and yesterday's high-yield channels keep absorbing attention long after they stop producing outcomes. Source Health prevents that drift from becoming invisible.

Open source healthRead the framework
Track source freshness before stale inputs poison the queue.
See which phrase families actually generate useful opportunities.
Expose blind spots before leadership assumes coverage is complete.
System integrity

A quality layer that watches the watchers.

Source Health turns source operations into a measurable discipline, so the team can tune the system based on evidence instead of intuition or habit.

Active sources
144

Live inputs currently contributing fresh evidence into account qualification and signal review.

Stale sources
11

Sources flagged for decay, policy change, reduced yield, or language drift before they undermine trust.

Coverage gaps
07

Market zones where expected signal volume is too low and new source exploration is warranted.

Recovered yield
+26%

Opportunity gain from reallocating effort away from low-output sources over the last review cycle.

If you cannot explain why a source is still in the stack, it is already time to review it. Source Health makes that review continuous.
What it measures

Source performance is broader than traffic or mention count.

The important question is not whether a source is active. It is whether the source is still producing credible, timely, high-yield evidence for your market.

Metric

Freshness

Watch recency, posting cadence, content availability, and policy changes so dead sources do not keep passing as live sources.

Metric

Coverage gaps

Identify where expected market motion is missing so the team can investigate whether the blind spot is real or the source stack is incomplete.

Metric

Phrase performance

See which themes, pains, and comparison terms are actually correlated with useful opportunities instead of generic chatter.

Why it matters

Weak source discipline destroys confidence slowly.

Teams usually notice the problem too late: lower queue quality, weaker stage inference, and more time spent manually checking whether the system is still telling the truth.

Impact

Kill dead weight

Retire stale channels before they waste analyst effort, inflate confidence, and crowd out sources that still carry real market pressure.

Impact

Tune the stack weekly

Source review becomes part of the operating rhythm, not an emergency cleanup after everyone notices the queue has gone soft.

Impact

Protect system trust

Operators keep using the output because the team can defend how the inputs are monitored, challenged, and improved.

Operational result

The system gets sharper every review cycle.

Source Health closes the loop between market observation and system maintenance so the quality of account intelligence compounds instead of degrading over time.

Outcome

Rebalanced source mix

Effort and attention move toward live, high-yield sources and away from channels that keep creating false urgency.

Outcome

Early decay alerts

When a source begins to underperform or a key phrase family stops yielding, the team sees the change before it becomes expensive.

Outcome

Defensible reporting

Leaders can see not just what the system found, but how healthy the source network is behind those findings.

Next move

A signal engine without source health will eventually lie to you.

Monitor the inputs with the same rigor you apply to the opportunities, and the system stays credible as your market evolves.
