First Look Today · the daily board

What moved on our beat, Monday, November 2, 2026.

Every morning the board reads the companies’ own releases and the week’s headlines on the small public companies building with SI and AR, counts a story once however many outlets carry it, and ranks it for freshness, reach, source and fit. Headlines are the publishers’ own words. What people are searching for and asking comes from Google, unedited. Nothing here is a recommendation.

Is Thursday the right day for the weekly?

One tap. Every answer earns 5 points and shapes what we research next. No price predictions, ever.

Headlines on our beat · 18 stories from 607 headlines

The number on the right is the board score (0 to 100): freshness, how many outlets carry the story, source authority and fit to our beat. It is not a view on any company or security. Items that read like tips are filtered out before they reach the page.

From the companies themselves · last 72 hours

Read from each company’s own press-release feed at build time, headline, date and link only. Companies whose feeds refuse automated readers are linked from their cards instead; nothing is worked around.

How to read this page. The board is a reading list, not research: nothing on it has been checked by us beyond coming from the source shown, and we add no view. First Look Equities is a research publisher, not a broker-dealer or a registered investment adviser; nothing here is an offer, a solicitation, a recommendation or advice tailored to anyone. Vuzix items carry our related-party line: AIEDGE Holdings, Inc., under common control with First Look Equities, is preparing an application to become a Vuzix reseller and software partner. Luxury Marine Life, the marine business of AIEDGE Holdings, is an affiliate; its watchlist companies are marked in teal. Who pays us, and the lines we never cross.
