News framing analysis that bias labels can't give you
2 followers
Ground News, Allsides and others give you a colored bar for biases. We give you the why. We're the analysis layer that sits on top of every news app. Signal/noise maps how 175+ rated sources frame the same story ā what the left emphasized, what the right buried, what only one independent journalist caught, and what prediction markets say about what happens next. Free. No ads. Ever.
Hey Product Hunt
If you've used Ground News, AllSides, or 1440 ā you already know the problem. They show you THAT coverage differs. We built Signal/noise to show you WHY.
Here's what we mean:
Ground News shows a colored bar: 60% left-leaning coverage, 40% right. Ok, then what? You still don't know what the left actually emphasized, what the right left out, or which detail only appeared in one outlet buried in paragraph 14.
Signal/noise fills that gap. Every morning at 7:15 (and anytime in the app) your briefing maps how 175+ rated sources covered the same stories ā not just the bias label, but the actual framing. More than a newsletter, we're an intelligence briefing for those that care about understanding the news, not just scanning headlines.
"The Signal"
One sentence. Every day. The single most important takeaway that only emerges from cross-spectrum synthesis.
"All 283 sources covering Iran agree on one thing none of them are leading with: the Strait of Hormuz shipping insurance rates tripled overnight. That's the real story ā the money moved before the diplomats did."
That's a real example from a recent briefing. You don't get that from a bias bar.
What else is different:
Prediction markets - when headlines say a ceasefire is imminent but Polymarket gives it 23% odds, we surface that gap. The money vs. the media narrative, every day.
40+ independent journalists tracked - when Seymour Hersh publishes at 2am and AP doesn't run it until 8am, you know at 7:15.
Reality Check paste any claim, get a sourced verdict in 15 seconds. AI cross-references multiple outlets and delivers VERIFIED, MIXED, or MISLEADING with citations.
Timeline - Track the evolution of stories over the days and weeks ahead, see how coverage-bias-analysis all blend together and see through the noise.
Weekly blind side report -your personal diversity score showing which perspectives you're consistently missing. Not to judge. To sharpen.
We've been running with a small group of early readers (200+ in a few days).
The consistent feedback? "This changes how I read every headline for the rest of the day."
We'd love this community's take ā what would make this more useful?
Oh and we'd love for you to try the app. Our first 1,000 users are free, forever.
What's next? We're building a narrative intelligence system ā one that reads the coverage patterns the way a trader reads price action. The chart isn't the news. The chart is the COVERAGE of the news. And it tells you what's coming before the headlines do.
