EU Monitor

With the EU Dashboard, you can monitor the European Commission, European Parliament, European Council, Council of the EU, and various stakeholder and media sources. Looking for COM documents, comitology decisions, EP subcommittees, parliamentary questions, communications, agendas, and more? Polpo keeps you fully informed on everything relevant to your themes.

The smartest way to stay
updated on political developments from
numerous Brussels-based sources.

By saving your searches, you’ll stay up to date on European political developments related to your topics. Advanced filter options ensure your results are tailored to your preferences in your personal Polpo account.

Intelligent Filter Options

 With the EU Dashboard, you can precisely select which EU sources to follow, so you never receive irrelevant information. For example, filter by institution—whether it’s the European Commission or European Parliament—or by document type, such as comitology decisions, amendments, or agendas. Polpo also allows you to include or exclude stakeholder and media updates from your results for specific topics. With these advanced filter options, you only receive the updates that matter to you.

24/7 Monitoring

In the Polpo dashboard, you can create and save searches by simply entering your theme and clicking save. You can choose to receive email notifications immediately, daily, or weekly, depending on your preferences. Polpo then works automatically to ensure you never miss a relevant update.

Insights and Analysis

Polpo’s tools give you a clear view of your topics and related documents. Use trend analysis to see how often and when your themes are discussed in the European Parliament and European Commission. Activity monitoring helps you identify parliamentary committees and (COM) dossier numbers most relevant to your topic. Within documents, Polpo shows related information and where your topic is mentioned, saving you time and effort.

Newsletter Module

With the newsletter module, you can easily create lists to store important updates and add notes. Build a personal archive of your key dossiers, featuring only the updates you want to keep. You can quickly turn these lists into newsletters ready to send via email. Add notes to Polpo updates or include your own to keep your audience informed quickly and efficiently.

Customers stories

Polpo clients are happy to share their experiences with the Polpo dashboard. Read below to see how Polpo helps them in their daily work.

"What really helps us is that we can create specific search queries for healthcare-related topics and see the results of these searches daily. It’s a great feature that whenever CZ is mentioned in a political context, we receive it directly in our mailbox."
Arjen Zwaan
Reputatiemanager, CZ Group
"With Polpo, you suddenly become the best-informed. Members of Parliament sometimes forward something to us two or three days later, while we had already received those documents through Polpo. Polpo is useful for individual cases. Additionally, Polpo gives you a strategic advantage compared to other parties that do not use it."
Rijk van Walsem
Manager Public Affairs, Municipality of Leiden
"For us, you offer a new way of monitoring, for example, because you use artificial intelligence, unlike more traditional monitoring systems. What I personally find especially great is the user-friendliness: if I want to adjust a search query, I can easily do it myself."
Anne-Marie Frissen
Beleidsadviseur, Bouwend Nederland
