About Command Center

Command Center is a real-time global intelligence dashboard. News from hundreds of outlets is geocoded and plotted on a 3D Earth, with optional AI voice briefings on demand. Free to use without an account.

What it does

Command Center pulls headlines from a curated list of major news outlets every few minutes, extracts location data, and plots each story on an interactive 3D globe in real time. When five outlets cover the same event, you see one beacon — not five — so the map reflects what is happening, not what is being repeated.

An optional AI operator can read a short briefing of the top stories aloud, with the voice mood-mapped to the current threat level inferred from the corpus. Pro and Premium subscribers can request fresh briefings on demand; Free commanders receive one daily tactical brief assembled from cached audio.

Features

  • Live 3D globe. Every story appears where it’s happening, the moment it breaks. Click any beacon to read the source articles.
  • Cross-outlet grouping. We collapse multi-outlet coverage of the same event into a single story — one beacon, multiple sources visible on click.
  • AI voice briefings. On-demand tactical readouts of the top stories, with tone shifting to match global threat level.
  • Custom alerts. Set Web Push notification rules on categories, regions, or keyword queries. Get alerted when something you care about breaks.
  • Live data layers. Optional overlays for earthquakes (USGS), tropical storms (NOAA), and the International Space Station’s current position, refreshed in real time.
  • Free to enter. Globe + 24-hour news feed without an account. Sign up only when you want alerts, the archive, or the voice operator.

Who it’s for

Analysts, journalists, researchers, traders, and anyone who needs a fast spatial read on what’s happening worldwide. The free tier alone supports casual news monitoring; the paid tiers add on-demand voice briefings, deeper historical archives, and unlimited alert rules.

Pricing

Free for the globe and 24-hour feed. Pro at $9/month adds on-demand voice briefings and a 7-day archive window. Premium at $29/month removes daily caps and unlocks the full archive plus API access. See full pricing for details.

Privacy and data handling

We process the minimum personal data needed to operate the service. IP addresses are SHA-256 hashed before persistence. We don’t sell user data. Optional Google sign-in is available — see our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service for the full disclosures.
