The problem it solves

Keeping up with the news means jumping between multiple sites and wading through stories that don't matter to you. You don't have time to read everything, but you don't want to miss what's actually important either.

Who it fits

A busy professional, content creator, or team that wants to stay informed without scrolling multiple news sites.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system checks feeds from BBC, Al Jazeera, France24, and The Guardian
  2. It gathers new headlines and articles published since the last check
  3. Google Gemini rewrites and summarizes each story into a clean, readable format
  4. The system ranks stories and selects the most relevant ones
  5. You receive a formatted digest email with the top stories of the day
What you get

Headlines you actually read every morning

Open your inbox each morning to a short, readable summary of the day's top stories from major news outlets.

What you get

A daily email digest with AI-summarized top news stories from multiple outlets.

What you need

A Google Gemini account and an email account for sending.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
