How This
Works
An AI-curated news briefing built on transparent source selection, structured analysis, and editorial priorities you can inspect.
Source Registry
We pull from 30 curated RSS feeds spanning 11 countries and regions. Sources are tiered by editorial standards, correction history, and independence. The AI editor is instructed to prefer higher-tier outlets and cap any single source at 3 articles per edition.
Curation Process
Each edition is assembled in five phases. Two use AI (Claude Sonnet at high effort), three are deterministic code (RSS ingestion, image sourcing, publishing).
1. Selection
An AI editor reviews all available headlines with source trust tiers and picks 25-30 articles per edition. Codified editorial priorities: breaking news first, then regional relevance (Japan, Australia, Asia-Pacific), AI/tech, business, cybersecurity, science, then global affairs. Featured stories are chosen for impact and category diversity. Listicles, sponsored content, and thin rewrites are filtered out.
2. Analysis
Each selected article is fetched and read in full by a sandboxed AI analyst. It produces a rewritten headline, summary, and detailed account with structured metadata: bias score, verification status, claim count, and fallacy flags. Original reporting and analysis are prioritized over wire summaries.
Bias & Verification
Bias Mapping
Each article receives a bias score (-3 to +3) and directional label. This isn't about removing perspective — it's about making it visible so you can read with awareness.
Claim Tracking
The AI counts factual claims and assesses how many are verifiable from the source text. Articles are marked verified, partially-verified, or unverified based on this assessment.
Fallacy Detection
Articles are scanned for common logical fallacies: Strawman, Ad Hominem, Slippery Slope, Whataboutism, Circular Reasoning, False Dichotomy, and Appeal to Authority. Flagged fallacies appear in the article metadata.
This analysis is performed by AI and reflects its interpretation. It's a reading aid, not a fact-check. Always read critically.
