How Finite works

Finite does not employ reporters. It reads a curated set of trusted publisher feeds, groups articles covering the same event, ranks them by how many independent outlets are reporting them, writes a short neutral summary, and always links back to the original sources.

How stories are selected

• We ingest headlines and short blurbs from a curated list of reputable RSS feeds — never full article bodies.
• Articles about the same event are clustered together.
• Stories corroborated by more independent outlets rank higher — corroboration is the quality gate.
• Each surviving story becomes one concise card that links out to its sources.

The daily limit

A brief is a small, fixed set of stories — roughly ten — presented one at a time with a visible progress indicator. When you reach the end, you are done. That limit is the product.

How personalisation works

Personalisation is optional and happens entirely in your browser. If you choose interests or a region, Finite may reorder or emphasise stories to match. The canonical public brief shown here is the non-personalised edition. Personalisation never sends your choices to a server, and it does not create separate public pages.

Choosing sources

Each story links to the outlets that reported it. We prioritise primary sources and original reporting, and we link out rather than reproduce — read the sources for full coverage.
