Boring Report utilizes the power of advanced AI language models to process exciting news articles and transform them into the content that you see. This helps readers focus on the essential details and minimizes the impact of sensationalism.
That's amazing. I'm in the marketing industry, but I'm tired when reaching the news.
I hope you can improve this product with some ideas below:
- Build Android versions of this app.
- Inserts a cover picture into the top of the article in the reader (by AI generation or the best of the editor's choice) that helps improve the user experience.
- Convert to other languages by AI. That can help your app scale up by reaching more users.
Thank you for your products. It is so good!

Turns the news into something even more cumbersome and hard to read, since it's an AI editorial layer on top of already convoluted headlines and content. Something like asking a bot to "make what read plain, oversimplified and unreliable". At times it changes even the context of a piece of news. But he would love it to work as depicted; unfortunately this isn't the case at all.
As a student of Journalism, I am really elated to see an app like this! There's too much of everything in the news these days, and this de-clutter helps a lot! This puts a lot of things into perspective and gets me right into the meat and potatoes of things!
Also, love the minimalistic design!
Congratulations on the launch!

Hey everyone!
@aquavitae and I are excited to show off Boring Report, a product we've worked hard on for the past couple of weeks. In today's world, catchy headlines and articles often distract readers from the actual facts and relevant information. Our solution was an app that uses AI language models to process news articles and transform them into the content that you see.
For example, here is a headline transformation found on the app:
"Same world, different planet: Trumpās arrest lays bare US polarization" ā "Donald Trump's arrest highlights deep political polarization in the US"
Our app contains transformed titles and summaries, and while they are not a substitute for the original article, the service aims to provide an alternative to todayās media landscape.
Additional points about this project:
- We're working on providing this service in more channels, such as
Android and browser extensions, so stay tuned!
- We're also planning to add language and locality support to cater content more effectively to users from different regions and languages, ensuring a more personalized and accessible experience.
- Follow us on Twitter for upcoming announcements and updates: https://twitter.com/boringreport
We are looking for feedback on improving the product, so give it a try and let us know!
@vaskal08@aquavitae I wonder how you intend to improve the real time nature of the reports. For example a report this morning is about a 'forthcoming' Arsenal-Liverpool game on Sunday that already took place. I would have expected the news about that game today to have been about the result. Is the app not generating them in real time yet?
@stephen_smith67 Thank you, glad you enjoy the format! In terms of the real time nature of the feed, there is a bit of a delay given the need to run articles through the AI. We plan to implement analysis of the articles to improve the feed in a few key ways:
1. improve relevancy of the articles for the users interests
2. relevancy given the user's locality
3. related to your question, process and surface articles closer to the date that the events happen.

@aquavitae@vaskal08 how do you intend to make profit? would really hate to have ads in this kind of app

As a person who dislikes being charmed by catchy headlines this looks very promising. Btw do not really understand the way it works on my iPhone. Is it an extension for some mobile browser?
@ars_chet Hello!
Here are two approaches for using the iOS app:
1. Browse various articles within the app, covering a wide range of categories. Each article includes a desensationalized summary and a link to its source.
2. When reading an article in your mobile browser, share it with Boring Report to generate a concise, "boring" summary.
Thank you for your support!
This is a great idea. I just placed the app on my home screen to see if it is something I will use daily. It is really helpful to have the plain English quick digest . Nice idea!
@stephen_smith67 Thanks for the support and a spot on your home screen! We're glad you find the boring summaries helpful. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to share. Enjoy using Boring Report! š

@vaskal08 The app is pretty great right now! The only thing Iād love to see more right now of is regional news, or at least country specific news.

Guys so incredible ! That could help my father which is every time impressed by titles of the press šš¤Æ

Amazing idea! It would be cool if it had a daily summary format like The Economist Espresso, or the short summary stories on the front of the wall street journal. As it matures, I think there are other ideas to try to reduce bias. The news is a non-random sampling of low probability, negative events, and alarmism.
