Recipe Catalog

Pre-configured monitoring feeds for EU regulatory data. Each recipe combines the right sources, languages, and filters for a specific use case.

How Recipes Work

A recipe is a saved configuration that tells Pauhu® which data sources to monitor, which languages to include, and where to send alerts. When a new document is published by an EU institution and matches your recipe, you receive a notification within minutes.

Every recipe includes:

2.4 million terminology entries for accurate multilingual matching
Automatic topic annotations on every document
290,000+ cross-references linking related documents across institutions
