Today’s topic: Futurwise

Remember the internet? It got worse.

AI slop is flooding every feed, every search result, every inbox. The volume of generated content now exceeds any individual's capacity to filter it. Finding something worth reading takes longer than actually reading it.

That is the content crisis. Here is what we did about it.

We rebuilt Futurwise from the ground up. The mission has not changed — noise-cancelling for your brain — but everything underneath it has.

What is new: four fast-moving domains only — emerging technologies, healthcare and longevity, climate and energy, urbanization and mobility.

No more generic news. Up to 84 granular categories so you build your own signal, not ours.

New subscription tiers determine which source channels you access, from mainstream news through verified expert thinkers to academic sources.

Drop in your own content — articles, PDFs, podcasts, videos — and get a personalized summary in seconds. Your personal noise filter.

We are also testing our first book inside the app: "Now What?" is available now on the Curiosity plan.

The web is drowning in AI slop. We built something different.

Know someone who could use noise-cancelling for their brain? Forward this their way.
