Difference

Most news asks you to choose a side or keep scrolling. The Brief compares the reporting first, then gives you one clear morning read with links back to the original sources.

Framing first Verified facts first Rumors first
Ad incentives Reader-funded Engagement incentives
Endless reading 5-minute morning read Endless scroll
One viewpoint 65+ sources compared Echo chambers
Hidden sourcing Original links included No receipts
What changes: typical news competes for attention, social media rewards reaction, and The Brief gives you a source-linked digest you can finish in 5 minutes.

Common Questions

If I decide it’s not for me, how hard is it to cancel?

One click from your dashboard—no phone calls, no “retention specialists,” no hoops. We believe in earning your trust every morning, not trapping you in a contract.

How is this different from the news I already see?

Most news is free because advertisers fund it — which means the product is your attention, not your understanding. We’re 100% reader-funded, so our only job is getting you the facts. 65+ sources, every morning, all in one email.

How do I know I’m getting the whole truth?

Every story includes links to all original sources so you can verify the facts for yourself. Our multi-source approach means you get the news without being told how to feel about it.

Why do you require a credit card for a free trial?

We use card verification to prevent spam and ensure we’re serving real readers. You won’t be charged a cent during your 7-day trial, and we’ll send you a reminder before it ends. See the quality for yourself.

What happens after my trial ends?

We send a reminder before billing starts. After 7 days, The Brief renews at $9/month or $60/year until you cancel. If you forget, our 30-day money-back guarantee has you covered.

A Note from the Founder

We built The Brief because mornings should feel clearer, not louder. Not because one side had all the spin—because every outlet has incentives that shape what you see.

So we built something different: a source-linked daily digest that gives you the verified facts first.

No loaded language. No speculation. Just what happened, why it matters, and links to verify yourself.

You deserve news that respects your intelligence. If you believe that too, we'd love your support.

— Andrew, Founder
