The right schedule in AIDular depends on how fast your topic changes. Fast-moving topics need daily reports. Slow-moving ones do better on weekly or monthly. Getting this wrong is the most common reason people feel their reports are either overwhelming or out of date.
Here's how to pick the right one.
Why Schedule Choice Matters
If you track breaking news daily, you get useful, timely updates. But if you track university application deadlines daily, you get the same information repeated 30 times a month. That's noise, not signal.
The goal is to match how often AIDular checks the web to how often the information actually changes.
The Three Schedules and When to Use Each
Daily
Pick daily when things move fast and missing a day could matter to you.
Good examples:
- A stock, crypto price, or product sale you might want to act on quickly
- News about a public figure, brand, or ongoing story
- Sports scores, transfer rumors, or tournament results
- A competitor's website or social presence
If you'd naturally check a website every morning, daily is the right call.
Weekly
Pick weekly for topics that change steadily but not by the hour.
Good examples:
- New job openings at companies you're watching
- A music artist's new releases or tour announcements
- Science or tech topics where new articles come out a few times a week
- A niche industry you want to stay informed about without inbox overload
Weekly is the sweet spot for most people. You stay in the loop without drowning in updates.
Monthly
Pick monthly for slow-changing, big-picture topics.
Good examples:
- Regulatory or policy changes in an industry
- Scholarship and grant cycles
- Broad market trends or annual reports
- Long-term project research where you just want a pulse check
If you'd be happy checking a topic once a month anyway, monthly keeps things clean.
A Simple 3-Step Decision Process
- Ask: how often does this topic actually change? News changes hourly. Policy changes yearly. Match your schedule to reality, not to anxiety.
- Ask: would missing a week hurt you? If yes, go daily or weekly. If no, weekly or monthly is fine.
- Start conservative, then adjust. It's easy to switch. Begin weekly, see how useful the reports feel, and move to daily or monthly from there.
Copy-Paste Example Prompts by Schedule
Here are three ready-to-use prompts you can copy straight into AIDular at aidular.com:
Daily:
"Find any new news articles or announcements about OpenAI published in the last 24 hours. Include a short summary of each and the source link."
Weekly:
"Search for new software engineering job listings at fintech companies in London posted this week. List the role, company, and a link to apply."
Monthly:
"Give me a summary of major regulatory changes or proposed laws affecting electric vehicles in the EU published this month."
Notice the time reference in each prompt matches the schedule. Saying "published in the last 24 hours" in a daily report keeps results fresh and relevant. Writing "this month" in a monthly prompt does the same thing.
One More Tip: Use Multiple Trackers
You are not limited to one. You can run a daily tracker for breaking news on a topic and a weekly tracker for related job openings. They sit separately in your dashboard and land in your inbox on their own schedule.
This lets you build a small, personalised information system without any manual checking.
