Introducing Particle: News, organized.

Today, Particle is officially available to download for free on iPhone and iPad in the US App Store.

It should be easier to understand what’s happening, so why does keeping up with the news feel like work?

First, you have to go to so many different places to find it. Then, you sift through clickbait headlines to piece together different perspectives. Sometimes, it’s cluttered with distractions that make it hard to read, or you might reach the end of a story only to realize it didn’t answer the questions you had. Even after all that, it’s hard to know if you’ve missed some of the things that you care about the most. It’s easy to feel exhausted and just give up.

That’s where Particle comes in.

Beyond articles: Stories

News isn’t one-dimensional, and neither is Particle. Particle organizes all the coverage so you can see the full picture of every story.

Understand more, faster

Each story comes with clear summaries so that you can catch up quickly. Select a summary style to see it in a different way:

Ask Questions

We’re often scouring the news, looking for answers we might not even find. With Particle, you can get an instant answer to any question about the story. And because you can see other people’s questions, sometimes the answer you’re looking for is already there.

Follow the story, follow anything

Follow any person, place, or thing featured in the app, or get push notifications whenever there’s news about what you’re tracking — like when your favorite stock makes headlines. You can also follow authors and publishers, so that you never miss new content from your favorites.

Control your algorithm

We enable powerful and transparent control over which stories you see, and which you don’t. On Particle, you can tune your interests to the topics that matter the most to you. Your news feed will adapt to your interests, bringing you the most relevant stories without the noise.

Break down the perspectives

The way a story is covered can be as crucial to understanding what’s happening as the story itself. Particle quickly shows you the coverage across a spectrum for political stories.

Artificial Intelligence you can trust

Without guidance, we all know AI can sometimes produce unexpected results. At Particle, we use both human and automated steps to perform oversight of the accuracy of our content to the source material. With Particle’s technology, we detect AI problems that otherwise would occur 1 in 100 times and reduce their likelihood to 1 in 10,000. We also transparently show the sources of content with links, so you always know where your news is coming from. If you ever see anything off, there are easy ways to report it.
