DemoSquare and Keystone-SDA join forces to deliver real-time political intelligence beyond legislation

Bern and Lausanne – February 17, 2026 – DemoSquare, an EPFL spin-off and public-affairs intelligence platform, and Keystone-SDA, Switzerland’s national news agency, are entering a strategic partnership. By integrating the Keystone-SDA news feed into the DemoSquare platform, public-affairs professionals and policy experts gain a powerful tool for real-time monitoring of political developments in Switzerland.

Political shifts often take shape long before they are reflected in draft legislation. Through the direct integration of Keystone-SDA's latest news, DemoSquare users gain early insights into relevant debates across politics, economy, and society. DemoSquare’s AI-powered technology filters and prioritizes this information based on relevance, enabling stakeholders to navigate the flood of information and identify critical issues at an early stage.

"In light of global turbulence, monitoring legislation at the rhythm of the Federal Assembly is no longer sufficient", says Victor Kristof, co-founder and CEO of DemoSquare. “Our clients need to capture developments as they emerge. While our algorithms analyze formal parliamentary processes, Keystone-SDA provides the journalistic context and real-time updates. This combination is a game-changer for public affairs monitoring.”

For Keystone-SDA, this partnership is part of a strategy to increase the reach of its journalistic content within specialized professional environments and to reach new audiences who rely on reliable, structured, and actionable information. At the same time, the cooperation strengthens the bridge between journalism and data intelligence.

“Keystone-SDA is very excited about this collaboration,” said Hanspeter Kellermüller, CEO of Keystone-SDA. “DemoSquare is an innovative startup with strong entrepreneurial spirit and a proven track record. We are convinced that both partners will benefit from it.”
