Social radar

Ask what's happening right now across social and the web, and get a cited briefing back.

Social radar is one screen: a composer, a control for how far back to look, and up to four topics that are trending right now. It describes itself as "Real-time monitoring across social and the web." — and the way you use it is to ask a question.

What you get back isn't a dashboard. It's a chat: Endless searches the live web, X and Reddit inside the window you set, then writes you a briefing with a link behind every claim.

The Social radar screen: a composer asking what's happening across social and the web right now, a recency control on it reading "Last 24 hours", and beneath it a row of trending-topic pills such as "AI product launches" and "Generative video"

Nothing here is saved and nothing is tracked. Radar has no watchlist, no tracked accounts, no charts and no history of its own. Each question is a fresh search, and the only thing that persists is the conversation it starts — which lives in Chat history like any other.

Asking Radar something

The pills under the composer are what's trending right now. Select one and it writes the prompt for you — the topic plus "what's driving it right now across X and the web" — which you can then edit. Or ignore them and type your own question; the composer's placeholder is "Search what's happening across social and the web right now…"

Set how far back to look

The control on the composer is titled "Real-time recency" and offers "Last 30 minutes", "Last hour", "Last 8 hours", "Last 24 hours", "Last 7 days" and "Last 30 days" — plus "Off". The page opens on "Last 24 hours", and the button shows the window you're on.

The window is the whole point of the surface: it's what stops Endless answering from what it already knew, and makes it go and look.

Narrow the sources, if you want to

With recency on, the same menu carries a "Sources" section — Web, X and Reddit. All three are on unless you say otherwise, and you can't switch the last one off. Turn some off and their marks appear on the button so you can see at a glance what you're searching.

Send it

Sending hands off to a new chat, which does the searching and writes the answer there. Selecting "Off" in the recency menu before you send turns Radar back into an ordinary chat prompt.

What comes back

Freshest first

The briefing leads with the newest, highest-signal developments and groups them by theme, rather than replaying background you already have.

Cited, not asserted

Every claim carries the link it came from — the post or the article — and anything unconfirmed or rumored is flagged as such.

A quiet window says so

If little happened in the range you picked, you're told that plainly. Endless won't silently widen the window to fill the page — ask for more time if you want it.

Because it's a chat, you can keep going: ask for the same thing narrowed to one source, ask it to draft a post from what it found, or attach the result somewhere. Everything on Chat applies from that point on.

Up to four topics, refreshed as you arrive, for the region the request appears to come from. There's no region picker — it's detected for you.

When live trends can't be reached, Radar doesn't pretend. It falls back to a handful of suggested topics, draws them differently, and labels them: "Live trends couldn't load - suggested topic, not live." They still make perfectly good prompts — they just aren't evidence of anything.

Radar without leaving your chat

Radar isn't only a page. Type @radar in an ordinary chat composer — it's listed as "Social radar", "Real-time briefing" — and the same recency control appears on that composer, armed at the last 24 hours. Remove the mention, or pick "Off", and the control goes away again.

Mentions

How @ works, and what else it can bring into a prompt.

Dictation

The Radar composer has the mic too — talk your question instead of typing it.

A half-written Radar prompt is kept if you navigate away and come back, so you can go and look something up mid-thought without losing it.

What it costs

A Radar question is a conversation, and it's priced like one: the reply shows its own cost, and the searches it runs are paid steps with their own prices shown on the step. A wide window across all three sources is more work than a narrow one. See Credits and spending.
