Watch a country list
Save the countries behind your largest limits and return to one view, instead of many news searches.
Follow coups, unrest, armed conflict and trade measures in the countries behind your limits, with the place, the time and the reports behind each event.
The problem
Country reviews run on a cycle. Events do not. Between two reviews, a buyer’s country can see a coup, a curfew or a new export ban.
Tellurial turns news, official feeds and public channels into one structured record per event, filed by country and region, and updated every 5–10 minutes.
Trade credit, surety and political risk teams get a dated, sourced account of what happened, to set beside their own country view when a limit or a claim is reviewed.
What you get
Events are filed by country and region, so you can follow the places your buyers and suppliers operate in, and see how a situation develops over days and weeks.
country · region · first_observed_at
Coups and unrest, political violence and armed conflict are separate categories, so a protest is not counted as a war and a war is not hidden among protests.
coup_or_unrest · political_violence · armed_conflict
Reported sanctions, export bans and other trade measures are recorded next to the events on the ground, in the same record.
sanctions_or_trade_measure
Port, canal and shipping disruption is its own category, for counterparties whose goods have to move.
port_or_shipping_disruption
For the more significant incidents, severity, confidence and materiality are separate fields. Anything not assessed is left empty rather than guessed.
severity · confidence · materiality · null = not assessed
An example
The view counts events by category and keeps the reports behind each one. This example is illustrative.
How teams use it
Save the countries behind your largest limits and return to one view, instead of many news searches.
A daily briefing by region gives underwriting, risk and claims teams the same starting point.
Pull events and signals into your own country risk tools through the API, or export them from the workspace.
What it does not do
We do not score countries or publish country ratings. The record shows what happened, so your own rating stays yours.
We do not assess companies, credit quality or payment behaviour. We record events, not counterparties.
We record and assess what was reported. We do not predict unrest, defaults or claims.
Each record shows what the sources said and how strongly they support it. Confidence tells you how far to rely on it.
