Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m thrilled to introduce Prism (News, refracted). Most news apps bombard us with isolated headlines. They tell you what happened, but rarely why it matters to the bigger picture. We get trapped looking at individual trees and miss the entire forest. I built Prism as a non-commercial passion project to solve exactly that. Its core mission is simple: to connect the dots of global events so you can see the entire web of cause and effect. Here is how Prism turns isolated news into a connected map of knowledge: 🌐 The Hero Feature: Connect the Dots Prism’s AI doesn't just summarize; it synthesizes. It automatically maps out how seemingly separate stories impact each other. Want to see how a geopolitical event in Europe ripples into local inflation, tech supply chains, or market shifts? Prism builds those bridges for you. You can even use the Map View to visually explore these connections. ⚖️ Multi-Framed Perspectives To connect the dots accurately, you need to see them from every angle. Prism groups coverage from diverse global and local sources, letting you compare different media framings of the exact same event side-by-side to break out of echo chambers. 🧠 Synthesis-Driven Daily Briefs Skip the doom-scrolling. Get an AI-generated daily brief across India, World, Tech, Business, Sports, and Science that focuses on narrative arcs and evolving trends rather than repetitive, standalone updates. 🤝 Total Source Transparency While the AI connects the dots, the original journalists did the legwork. Every synthesized story features direct, prominent links to the primary publishers so you can dive deeper into the source material instantly. Because this is a pure hobby project built out of a love for media literacy, your feedback is incredibly valuable to me. Take the Map View for a spin and let me know: Does seeing the news as an interconnected web change how you consume information? I’ll be here all day responding to your thoughts, critiques, and feature ideas. Let’s discuss! 👇
