Monitor news mentions of key executives and company disputes, assess reputational risk using AI, and generate executive briefings for crisis management teams.

Workflow Steps

1

Google Alerts

Monitor executive and company mentions

Set up Google Alerts for key executives, company name, and crisis-related keywords (e.g., 'lawsuit', 'testified', 'dispute', '[CEO name] + controversy'). Configure alerts to send to a dedicated Gmail address with immediate frequency.

2

Zapier

Trigger workflow from new alerts

Create a Zapier trigger that activates when new emails arrive in the monitoring Gmail account. Filter for emails from 'googlealerts-noreply@google.com' to ensure only genuine alerts trigger the workflow.

3

OpenAI GPT-4

Assess reputational risk level

Send the news article to GPT-4 with prompt: 'Analyze this news article for reputational risk. Rate severity 1-5, identify potential business impacts, suggest immediate actions, and flag if C-suite should be notified immediately. Focus on legal, financial, and PR implications.'

4

Airtable

Log incident with risk metrics

Create a record in Airtable crisis tracking base with: date, news source, risk score, executive involved, summary, recommended actions, and status. This creates an audit trail and trending analysis for crisis patterns.

5

Microsoft Teams

Alert crisis management team

Post high-risk incidents (score 4-5) to the crisis management Teams channel with structured format: Risk Level, Executive, Summary, Business Impact, Immediate Actions Required. For score 5 incidents, @mention the entire crisis team.
