About

Briefly puts you back in control of your news. You add your own sources from any country and in any language, and AI summarizes every article in a few sentences. Breaking news shows up right away, everything else arrives as a calm daily overview, so you read the right thing at the right moment.

There is no algorithm deciding what you see, no ads and no data profiles. Just a fast, clear overview of what you chose to follow, with a link to the original article whenever you want the full story. It is free while in open beta.
