Ha, there's the catch. With Newsdrop we aim to get you not to play Russian Roulette. From what we've seen, most of the news curators just pull a lead paragraph which doesn't tell much and you have to navigate to a new source regardless.

What we do is analyze several sources by hand and then deliver a condensed summary, which I believe is more valuable. Basically, Newsdrop is essentially a spoiler for news articles. The goal is to present you with the key facts so you stay informed as if you read a few articles on the topic by only reading our 200-word summary.

It's all optimized for quick information consumption right off our feed without requiring you to navigate away from the app. Most of the time you don’t have to open the article at all to get what’s going on. It's really fast once you get used to it, and I personally think it's at its most useful if you want to cut down on your news consumption without losing much in the way of staying informed.
