About AI Newsnow

What AI Newsnow is

AI Newsnow is a live, story-centric AI news aggregator. Every 10 minutes it reads 259 curated sources — official lab blogs, major media, research feeds, developer communities, newsletters, podcasts and video channels — clusters related coverage into single stories, and ranks them by importance. One story, every angle, with a timeline of who reported what and when.

Who runs it

AI Newsnow is built and run by an independent developer as a fast, neutral way to follow the AI news cycle without wading through duplicate takes. It is not affiliated with NewsNow Publishing Ltd (newsnow.com), with ainewsnow.com, or with any AI lab or publisher it links to.

How sources are curated

Sources qualify when they publish original AI reporting or primary announcements, maintain a working feed, and have a track record of accuracy. Each source carries a tier: tier 1 is official/primary (lab blogs, research organisations), tier 2 is major media, tier 3 is blogs, newsletters and community feeds. Tier feeds into story ranking.

How clustering and scoring work

Headlines are tokenised and compared: stories merge when their titles genuinely overlap or when they share phrasing plus a common company or model. A story's importance score (1–10, shown as stars) combines the best source tier in the cluster, how many distinct outlets are covering it, whether an official announcement is present, launch language, and recency. No engagement metrics, no personalisation — the same feed for everyone.

The Daily Brief

Each morning at 6:30 UTC an AI-written brief summarises the last 24 hours' top stories, with links to the underlying story pages. You can read it on the site or get it by email.

Public API and feeds

The live snapshot is available as JSON at /api/news (free for non-commercial use with attribution — a link back to ainewsnow.io). RSS feeds exist for every section at /feeds/<section>.xml, e.g. /feeds/top.xml. An embeddable top-stories widget is at /embed.

Contact, corrections and removals

Questions, corrections, licensing concerns, or a publisher removal request: use the contact form. Removal requests from publishers are honoured — we link out and attribute rather than republish, and any source can opt out entirely.
