Sources edit. Statements vanish.Keep the receipts.
How reporters use Viewcel
From breaking edits to long-running beats
Three ways newsrooms and independent reporters put Viewcel to work every day.
Preserve what the page used to say
Every capture is saved with a timestamp. When a source rewrites a statement, you still have the original — and the diff that proves the edit happened.
Track a quote across a source's site
Set a text alert on a name, claim, or filing number. The moment the phrase appears, disappears, or is reworded anywhere you're watching, you'll know.
A chronological log of every update
Watch a press room and Viewcel builds a running timeline of every change, so you can trace how a story's public narrative evolved hour by hour.

Who this is for
Built around how reporters actually work
Whether you're freelance or part of a desk, Viewcel fits the shape of the job.
Investigative reporter
Solo or small team
Watch the regulators, registries, and corporate statements that underpin your beat. Export evidence directly from the history view when it's time to file.
Newsroom researcher
Desk support
Keep dozens of source pages under passive watch for the whole desk. Hand reporters a clean diff and a dated screenshot instead of a frantic cache hunt.
Fact-checker
Verification workflow
Confirm whether a claim was ever on a page, when it was edited, and what replaced it — without relying on third-party archives you can't control.
