Signals breaking now.
BSP Signals Final Rate Hike as Peso, Inflation Risks Linger
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas may close its tightening cycle with one last quarter-point increase, ANZ Research said, as the peso stays weak and inflation runs above target. The same day, ICTSI locked in a $1-billion loan from BDO Unibank and the Treasury shelved a five-year bond sale.
Regulators Move on Reddit, Discord, Meta and DICT
Philippine regulators issued show-cause orders to Reddit, Discord, Meta and Roblox over data privacy compliance, gave Reddit and Discord 24 hours to appoint local representatives, and focused an Ombudsman probe on the DICT's free Wi-Fi program. Separately, the Finance Secretary signed a resolution removing excise tax on LPG and kerosene.
Fuel Crisis Drives Excise Cut, Fare Hikes, Strikes
The Philippines' fuel crisis dominated the day as the Finance Secretary signed a resolution removing excise taxes on LPG and kerosene, bus operators cut trips and sought fare increases, and transport groups announced a two-day strike. The Department of Energy warned pump prices will stay elevated through Christmas.
Pax Silica Draws Church, Celebrity Pushback
A Cagayan de Oro forum, a bishop's call for safeguards, and a comedian's viral post put the proposed New Clark City data-hub project under scrutiny, while fuel prices, flood-control protests, and housing policy dominated the day's other coverage.
Remulla Retracts Roque Asylum Claim as DILG Budget Faces Scrutiny
Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla admitted he was wrong about Harry Roque's asylum status, saying the application remains unresolved in Austria. The correction came during House deliberations on the DILG's 2027 budget, where lawmakers also pressed the agency on school shootings and free WiFi irregularities.
Fuel Hikes Push Bus Firms to Cut Trips as Palace Blocks Fare Rise
Provincial bus operators cut trips and asked President Marcos to restore a suspended fare increase as diesel rose another P8.82 per liter, while the Palace called a fare hike a last resort and the transport regulator won an election-period exemption for its fuel subsidy programs. A viral video of an Eat Bulaga host driving without a seatbelt drew a show cause order and a suspended license.
Not all coverage is created equal. We built the math to tell them apart.
A mention on a national broadsheet during peak news hours is not the same as a mention in a provincial tabloid at 2am. Story Value, Author Score, and Publication Score are MMI's proprietary measurement framework — calibrated specifically to Philippine media reach, authority, and influence patterns. The same methodology applies across MediaWatch and the broader platform, so a campaign measured in print can be compared like-for-like to its social amplification.
See how Story Value worksA coverage score grounded in real reach.
Combines Publication Score, Author Score, prominence on the page, and audience reach into a single calibrated value. The number you can defend in a board deck.
The journalist's gravity, quantified.
Tracks influence patterns across cadence, byline frequency, and amplification. Surfaces the writers whose coverage moves narratives — and the ones who don't.
Calibrated to PH reach hierarchies.
Weighted by audited circulation, broadcast reach, digital traffic, and editorial authority — calibrated to the Philippine media reach hierarchy no global tool can replicate.
AI that reads Filipino the way Filipinos write.
Most sentiment engines are trained on English-language data and fail at the moment they meet Philippine reality — sarcasm read as praise, hugot read as complaint, regional expressions registered as noise. MMI's AI is trained and continuously refined on Philippine corpora.
Sentiment, calibrated locally — read tone across Filipino, English, Taglish, and major regional languages.
Sarcasm read as praise, hugot read as complaint, regional expressions in Bisaya, Ilocano, or Kapampangan registered as neutral noise — generic sentiment engines fail here. MMI's AI is trained and continuously refined on Philippine corpora, so a sentiment score reflects what your audience actually means.
Catch a spike before it spikes.
Anomaly detection flags coverage surges, sentiment swings, and emerging narratives the moment they start to move — typically hours before they reach your CEO's inbox.
Briefings, not dashboards.
Daily executive summaries written in your house style — a board-grade read for the CEO, an operational read for the comms team, both in the same inbox before 7 AM.
One platform. Every signal. Engineered to work as one.
MMI unifies traditional media monitoring, social listening, brand mention tracking, paid media verification, and analyst-grade reporting into a single intelligence platform — calibrated to Philippine reach, language, and audience reality. Every signal lives in one architecture, scored with one methodology, surfaced through one dashboard.
Catch every signal, in under five minutes.
Always-on monitoring across print, broadcast, online, and social — alerts in your inbox while the story is still being filed.
Decision-grade intelligence outputs.
Analyst-curated briefings, share-of-voice dashboards, and Story Value reports. Brief leadership with intelligence they can defend.
Executive deliverables, not notifications.
Daily briefings written in your house style, surfaced from cross-platform signal — the vocabulary of Bloomberg and Axios, calibrated to Philippine media.
Who owns the conversation.

Built for the people who are accountable when the story breaks.
Each team has a different highest-stakes moment. MMI is configured to the moment the platform has to deliver.
A defensible position no other platform can credibly occupy.
Enterprise-grade media intelligence, calibrated to Philippine media reality — at a tier and depth global and regional players structurally cannot match.
| Where they play | Their position | What MMI claims over them |
|---|---|---|
| Global enterprise platforms Global enterprise | Deep AI investment. Generic Asia-Pacific coverage; no Philippine-specific calibration of source, reach, or sentiment. | Philippine market depth: 1,500+ local sources, locally-trained sentiment AI, provincial and vernacular monitoring no global tool covers. |
| APAC enterprise tools APAC enterprise | Strong regional coverage. Philippine-aware but not Philippine-specific; resourced from Sydney and Singapore. | True local calibration: sentiment models trained on Philippine corpora, Story Value calibrated to Philippine reach hierarchies, analysts with deep local expertise. |
| SMB / mid-market self-serve tools SMB / mid-market | Self-serve, low-cost. Modern UX but minimal traditional-media coverage; English-first sentiment. | Enterprise depth: traditional and broadcast coverage, analyst-curated reports, AMEC-aligned methodology — at a tier these tools cannot reach. |
| Content / marketing tier tools Content / marketing | Trend tracking, influencer analysis. Not built for crisis or executive communications use cases. | Crisis-ready architecture: executive briefings, board-grade reporting, escalation routing — the use cases this tier explicitly does not serve. |
Built for, not just built by — the Philippines.
Capability framing in place of heritage claims. Verifiable, specific, and global in legibility.
Brand and regulatory coverage land in the same feed, undifferentiated. Policy shifts surface days after sentiment has already moved — and your executives find out through a news alert.
Regulatory sentiment tracked separately from brand coverage. Financial journalists mapped by influence. A clear read on which institutions are shaping the next narrative cycle — before earnings season begins.
Outage mentions get logged. But competitor network announcements and complaint patterns that consolidate into press narratives don't — not until the weekly report runs, when the window has already passed.
Network sentiment and competitor share of voice tracked in real time. Coverage calibrated to the Philippine telco landscape — not a generic APAC overlay. Signals that move narratives, caught before they move the press.
Social mentions get counted. But the conversations shaping purchase intent — food creators, community groups, lifestyle media — sit outside the standard monitoring scope. Sentiment reads positive right up until it doesn't.
Editorial and social tracked together. Influencer share of voice mapped against press coverage. A read on which product narratives have real momentum — and which ones are quietly being shaped by channels your team isn't watching.
Developer coverage in the business press is captured. But the conversations shaping buyer decisions — community forums, property lifestyle content, OFW investment groups — run in channels a standard dashboard wasn't built to read.
Editorial, broadcast, and community channels tracked in a single view. Project sentiment mapped by region, not just Metro Manila. Buyer narrative signals surfaced before competitors move on them.
National headlines say the program is working. Regional media tells a different story. Without both in view, communications teams are making decisions on an incomplete read of public sentiment.
National and regional coverage unified in one view. Policy sentiment tracked beyond the capital. Early signals surface before they reach national media — enough lead time to respond, not just react.
Weekly brand mention reports track what was said. Meanwhile, EV adoption sentiment and fuel price anxiety are quietly reframing purchase decisions in consumer media — changes that won't surface in volume reports until next quarter.
Market shifts tracked as narratives, not just volume. Brand share of voice read against sales momentum signals. A clear forward view on which brand owns the next quarter's conversation — not a summary of the last one.
