The problem it solves

Staying on top of news for your industry or clients means jumping between multiple sites and skimming article after article. By the time you've read enough to feel informed, you've burned through most of your morning.

Who it fits

Business professionals, analysts, and content teams who need quick, reliable updates on a specific topic.

How it works

  1. Someone submits a topic through a simple web form
  2. The system fetches current news articles on that topic
  3. AI picks the most relevant articles and writes a professional summary
  4. The finished summary is posted to Slack
What you get

News roundups on any topic you choose

You get a polished news summary on any topic, delivered straight to your Slack channel whenever you need it.

What you get

A clean, professional news summary with sources, posted directly to your Slack channel.

What you need

A Gnews.io account, an OpenAI API key, and a Slack workspace.

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.
