For You
Ranks shift as you do — this is the real engine's logic

In this edition

№ 01 — The product
Lead story · Ranking

A feed that learns the way an editor would.

Genre affinity, recency, popularity, topic similarity — minus what you've seen, plus a pinch of exploration. Like three tech stories and tech floats to the top. Mute a topic and it's gone. The maths is honest and the dial is yours.

Sources

Real publishers, real RSS.

BBC, The Verge, Ars Technica, The Guardian — pulled live, parsed clean, photos in grayscale so the news is the colour.

Reading modes

Magazine to deep-dive.

Four complexity modes per story — skim it as an executive brief or unfold the full analysis. Same story, your altitude.

Tuning rail

Pin, mute, trust, repeat.

Per-source trust dials, topic pins, duplicate-cluster collapse, a slow-news toggle. The feed is an instrument; play it.

Anywhere

Installs like an app.

A full PWA — offline shell, home-screen icon, deep links that survive a cold start. The newspaper that ships itself.

The AI desk

№ 02 — Premium
Per story

TL;DR, honestly.

An original recap with three key points — remade from the source, never scraped. Plus "why you're seeing this" so the ranking is never a mystery.

Every morning

The Daily Briefing.

Your top five stories synthesised into one read — what happened, why it matters, what to watch. Five minutes, fully caught up.

On demand

Ask the News.

A conversational desk grounded in today's feed. Answers cite the stories they came from.

Context

Story Roots.

Trace any story back through the beats that led here — a timeline from first spark to this morning's NOW.

How it tunes

№ 03 — Three steps
01

Pick your genres.

Nine to choose from — tech, world, business, science, culture and more. This seeds the first front page; nothing is locked in.

02

Read like you read.

Open, like, save, skip. Every signal nudges the ranking — affinity up, seen-it decay down. No surveys, no settings maze.

03

Watch it sharpen.

Within a session the front page is recognisably yours. Check "why you're seeing this" on any story to audit the maths.
