Most news is too zoomed in — fragments without trajectories, events without history, problems without progress. We zoom out.

What matters, not what's loud

We skip sports, celebrity gossip, and outrage-cycle stories. Every trend in your digest will still matter in six months.

Context over headlines

Each trend comes with context explaining what's happening and why, plus a zoom-out that places it in a bigger picture — grounded in facts, not speculation.

A bright spot every week

Every digest ends with something genuinely uplifting from the week's news — a community that came together, a breakthrough that will help real people, a quiet piece of good news.

Actions you can take

When a trend connects to something you can do about it, we include concrete civic actions — contact your representative, submit a public comment, show up.
