News without manipulation.

Instaday gathers public reporting from 18 trusted publishers across the EU and US, then maps the distinct narrative angles around a topic — so you can see the full picture instead of one algorithmic slice of it.

What makes Instaday different

Privacy

We literally cannot profile you

No tracking, no advertising, no third-party scripts, no fingerprinting. Your searches are processed anonymously and never tied to your identity.

No engagement bait

No infinite scroll

No push notifications, no streaks, no dark patterns. Two daily digests, on your terms. Anything more is opt-in.

Transparent AI

Citations are mandatory

Every claim in a Veracity Map links back to its original source. The AI never invents facts — only clusters what it can attribute.

Open infrastructure

Built on open protocols

RSS feeds from public broadcasters. Bluesky's open AT Protocol firehose. No dependency on closed platforms that can pull the rug.

How a Veracity Map is built

When you search for a topic, Instaday runs a four-step pipeline. The whole process takes between five and fifteen seconds, with progress shown live.

  1. Search We embed your topic and run a vector search across the last 7 days of news from our 18 whitelisted publishers, returning the 25 most semantically relevant fragments.
  2. Sources visible The source list appears on your screen immediately — you can see exactly who is being read before any AI is involved.
  3. Synthesis Gemini 2.0 Flash, with a strict structured-output schema, identifies the distinct narrative angles being adopted by different publishers and flags any factual contradictions between them.
  4. The Veracity Map You see 3-5 narrative clusters, each with its supporting sources, key claims, and which other clusters it contradicts. No verdict, no winner — you get the full landscape and decide.

What we are not

Instaday is not a fact-checker. We do not pronounce things true or false. We do not moderate the publishers we read. We do not host user-generated content during this MVP phase. We are a synthesis layer on top of public news that already exists — built so that you can see what actually exists across the spectrum, without an algorithm choosing for you.
