The 48-hour clock
From EDGAR acceptance to a position on the record.
Every definitive proxy statement runs the same path. The clock starts when EDGAR accepts the filing and stops when each covered item carries a published position.
01 / FILING
DEF 14A accepted
EDGAR acceptance starts the clock. The filing enters the queue automatically.
02 / DECOMPOSE
Ballot broken out
Each proposal becomes an atomic item: directors, pay, plans, auditor, shareholder proposals.
03 / ANALYZE
Item reasoned
Each item is assessed against the public record and Signal’s published standards.
04 / PUBLISH
Position on record
FOR, AGAINST or WITHHOLD publishes with reasoning, sources and a fixed timestamp.
05 / RECONCILE
Outcome closed
When the company reports the vote on Form 8-K, the call is reconciled in the Ledger.
Open ballot
The product is the ballot, read line by line.
Each covered item carries one position and the peer view alongside it, so the divergence is visible at a glance rather than buried in a report.
- FOR, AGAINST or WITHHOLD on every covered ballot item
- Reasoning tied to the public record
- Peer-advisory position shown for contrast
- Concern banding: Routine, Elevated, Contested
Latest recommendations
Recent reports, published before the meeting.
Each report covers one issuer’s ballot in full. The divergence count is how many items Signal called differently from the incumbent advisory consensus.

Divergence vs incumbents
Where Signal departs from the duopoly.
The incumbent advisers are oriented toward institutional voting rails. Signal reads from the common shareholder’s seat, which is where the positions diverge. Sample items shown for contrast.
The Signal Ledger
