Setting up your first AIDular report takes about ten minutes. You tell it what to track, pick how often, and AIDular emails you a sourced summary on schedule. No manual searching needed.
If you have never used AIDular before, this guide walks you through every step. By the end, you will have a live report running.
Step 1: Sign Up and Get to the Dashboard
Go to aidular.com and create a free account. The Lite plan costs nothing and is a good place to start.
Once you log in, you will see the dashboard. This is where all your reports live. Right now it is empty, and that is fine.
Step 2: Click "New Report"
Hit the "New Report" button. A form will open. This is the only screen you really need to understand.
There are three main fields:
- Prompt (what you want AIDular to search for)
- Frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Recipients (who gets the email)
Step 3: Write Your Prompt
Your prompt is a plain English description of what you want tracked. Think of it like texting a very capable researcher.
A bad prompt is too vague:
"Tech news"
A good prompt is specific about the topic, the angle, and the type of information you want back.
Here is a copy-paste example prompt you can use right now:
"Search for the latest news about electric vehicle battery prices. Include any announcements from major manufacturers like Tesla, BYD, or GM. Summarise price trends and note any upcoming product launches. I want a brief overview I can read in five minutes."
See how that prompt names the topic (EV battery prices), the sources to look at (major manufacturers), the format (brief overview), and the reading time? That specificity is what gets you a useful report instead of a random mix of links.
A Simple Formula for a Good Prompt
- Name the topic clearly. "Electric vehicle battery prices" not just "EVs".
- Add context or scope. Which companies, regions, or timeframes matter to you?
- Say what you want back. A summary? A list of headlines? Price changes only?
- Mention length or format if it matters. "A short overview" or "bullet points" works fine.
Step 4: Choose Your Frequency
Pick daily if the topic moves fast, like stock prices or breaking news. Pick weekly for most topics, like industry trends, job listings, or product launches. Pick monthly for slow-moving subjects, like policy changes or annual reports.
When in doubt, start weekly. You can always change it later.
Step 5: Add Recipients
Type in your email address. You can add other people too, like a teammate or a friend who wants the same updates. AIDular will send the report to everyone on the list at the same time.
Step 6: Save and Wait
Hit save. AIDular will run its first search at the next scheduled time and email the report straight to you.
Your first report will arrive in your inbox already formatted, with sources linked so you can check anything that catches your eye.
What to Do When Your First Report Arrives
Skim the summary first. If something looks off or too broad, go back to your prompt and make it more specific. Adding one or two extra sentences to a prompt usually fixes 90% of problems.
If the report is exactly what you needed, you are done. AIDular keeps running on its own schedule from here.
