"Every morning you open three tabs just to triangulate the truth. One leans left. One leans right. One is trying to sell you something. There's a better way."

The nearly.news promise
How It Works
1
We pull from across the spectrum
AP, Reuters, BBC, NPR — not one outlet's take, all of them. Then we deduplicate, strip the spin, and surface what actually happened.
2
You tell us what matters to you
Your city. Your conference. Your teams. Set it once. We build your feed around your life — not an algorithm's guess at what keeps you scrolling.
3
Read it the way you want
Plain facts if that's your morning. Witty delivery if you need some levity. Snarky if the world earned it. Southern warmth if you're home. Same news. Your voice.

Same facts.
Your voice.

The news doesn't change. How you receive it can.

Choose your delivery style each morning. The facts are always intact — we just change the tone. Because sometimes you want the straight story, and sometimes the world has earned a little side-eye.

Plain
Just the facts. Clean, sourced, balanced. Nothing added, nothing removed.
"The Fed held rates steady at its May meeting, citing mixed signals on inflation."
Witty
A clever friend texting you the news. Light, warm, factually intact.
"The Fed did its best 'not it' impression again. Economists nodded along like they called it."
Snarky
Dry, world-weary, accurate. For when the news has earned the eye-roll.
"In a development that surprised no one, rates remain unchanged. The committee continues to exist."
Southern
Warm, folksy, colorful. Like a Charleston neighbor over sweet tea.
"Well bless their hearts up at the Fed — left things right where they were. Lord willing."
