When you need to track regulatory catalysts across 20 pipeline assets before a conference, or monitor competitive moves in a therapeutic area over months, Watchlists keep everything in one place and surface changes as they happen. You define the drugs, trials, and companies to follow, and Maven delivers a filtered event feed with source links and context.

Click Watchlists in the left toolbar. You land on the All Events Feed, which shows every event across the platform. To create a focused view, click +Create (top-left), name your watchlist, and click Create Watchlist.

Click Add Items in the center of the screen. Select the entity type (Drug, Trial, or Company) from the dropdown, type a name, and select it from the list.

You can also use Import from Table to bring in entities from an existing Smart Table. If your list is not in a Smart Table yet, import it there first, then refresh.

Once items are added, your watchlist shows a chronological event feed. Each event card includes a headline summary, an event-type tag, a link to the original source, and quick links to the associated drug, trial, or company.

Use the Event types dropdown to filter by category (e.g., FDA actions, trial updates, press releases). You can also filter to a specific entity within the watchlist using the entity filter or the search bar.

Click any event card to see the full summary, source link, and related entities for deeper context.

Open Watchlist Settings to access three configuration areas:

General Settings lets you add context notes that shape how Maven summarizes events. Adding notes like "Tracking Phase 3 oncology trials for advisory committee prep" or "Monitoring competitive KRAS programs for BD strategy" makes the AI-generated digests more focused on what matters to your analysis.

Email Digest Frequency controls how often you receive updates: real-time, daily, weekly, or monthly. Digests include event titles, descriptions, and links to full details. Non-real-time digests with context notes include AI-generated summaries tailored to your watchlist's focus.

Manage Items opens the Watchlist Manager where you can add or remove entities, open entity profiles, import from a table, or return to the event feed.

Manage Access controls who can view or edit the watchlist. For details, see Managing Watchlist Permissions and Sharing.

Once your watchlist is tracking the right assets, build a Smart Table to compare their clinical profiles side by side, or use the AI Research Agent to generate a landscape analysis across your watched entities.
