Main Take
The Consensus View
What most coverage is saying. The dominant narrative backed by major outlets, official sources, and expert analysis. The take you'd get from a well-read friend who follows the news.
Bite-Sized Audio News Briefings
One story.
Three takes.
90 seconds.
QuickTake delivers trending topics as swipeable, audio-narrated briefings — each one broken into Main Take, Hot Take, and Wild Take so you actually think about what you read. Every take cites real sources.
Built for busy professionals who want to stay sharp, not just stay busy.

Staying informed shouldn't feel like a chore. Or a trap.
Your feed already decided what you think.
Algorithms serve you more of what you already believe. You scroll for hours and come out with the same opinion you walked in with. That's not staying informed. That's confirmation on repeat.
You don't have 45 minutes for a podcast recap.
Articles are 2,000 words long. Newsletters stack up unread. You just want to know what's happening, why it matters, and what people are missing — fast.
You consume content in vertical swipes.
But news still looks like it was designed for people who read newspapers at breakfast. The format hasn't caught up to how you actually consume information.
How It Works
Three swipes. Three takes. Fully briefed.
1
Swipe Through Trending Topics
Open QuickTake and swipe vertically through today's biggest stories — politics, tech, culture, sports, business. New topics drop in three daily batches matched to your timezone. It feels like scrolling Reels, except you actually learn something.
2
Hear Every Side
Each topic has three perspective cards you swipe between horizontally: Main Take (the consensus), Hot Take (smart pushback), and Wild Take (the angle nobody's talking about). Each is ~75 words with a 30-second audio briefing.
