How-toChecked 2026-10-10

You will end with a saved feed, so Feed, Analytics, Movers and Sectors show only your market. It takes about a minute.

Steps

  1. Open Adapt Insights then Feed, and click Set up your feed. If you have already saved one, the button says Edit my feed. A new account is also asked once per browser session.
  2. 1. Who you sell to. Search for sectors and click each one you sell into. You can pick up to 30. With nothing picked it says Every sector. When you have not searched, the list shows the sectors busiest for news right now.
  3. 2. Their size. Pick from 1 to 10, 11 to 50, 51 to 200, 201 to 500, or over 500 staff. Leave all off for any size. Adapt knows staff numbers for only a small share of businesses, so keep Include the ones whose size we do not know on, or you will miss most of them.
  4. 3. Where they are. Search a town or a postcode area, such as Leeds or LS. With nothing picked it says All of the UK.
  5. 4. What to watch. Choose kinds of news, grouped as Growth, People, Profile, Changes, Relationships and Risk. Pick at least one. A switch adds Industry news for your sectors: stories that do not name one firm.
  6. 5. How often. Choose Only in the app, Daily email or Weekly email.
  7. Click Show my feed, or Save and email me daily or weekly.
