About Lede

Lede reads public news feeds, blogs and newsrooms, puts coverage of the same event together into one story, and ranks a feed around the topics you follow. Every story links back to the original articles.

• It reads public feeds. Lede's servers collect headlines and short excerpts that publishers offer openly through their feeds.
• It merges duplicates. Twenty articles about one event become one story, with every source listed.
• It explains. Each story says what happened, why it matters and what changed. Each analysis states whether an AI model or Lede's built-in engine wrote it.
• It briefs you. A daily brief, a weekly briefing and an Ask box answer from the stories Lede has read, with sources.

There is nothing to sign up for. Your browser or app install gets a random id, and your topics, saved stories and alerts are tied to that id. The trade-off is that your reading list lives on one device. Read the Privacy Policy for the details.

Lede is not a publisher. Headlines, excerpts and articles belong to the publishers who wrote them, and Lede sends you to the original to read the full piece.
