How do you actually stay on top of your field without drowning in news?
I've been chewing on this while building Ulsa, so I wanted to open it up here before we launch.
If you work in a fast-moving field, staying current is basically a second job. For years my routine was checking ten different sources every morning, newsletters, X, a pile of news sites, and I still felt like I was missing the things that mattered for my work while drowning in things that didn't.
The thing I keep coming back to: most people don't want more news, they want the signal relevant to their specific role. A founder, a PM, and a trader can read the same headline and need completely different takeaways from it.
That's the problem we built ULSA around. It reads hundreds of sources and gives you one daily briefing tailored to your industry and role, plus a score for how fast your field is moving and research that pushes back on the headlines.
But I'm more curious how the people here handle it:
• How many sources do you check on a normal morning?
• What's actually working for you, and what isn't?
• If you could wave a wand, what would your ideal "stay informed" setup look like?
We're launching soon and this kind of input genuinely shapes what we build next. Would love to hear your routines.
