Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Tom, solo maker of Brightcast. I live in Switzerland with my wife and two teenage children, and I built this because about 18 months ago I noticed something uncomfortable: my children were forming their picture of the world from headlines that left them quietly anxious — and I wasn't much better, doomscrolling on the couch after they went to bed.
The problem isn't that bad things happen. It's that good things happen too — real climate progress, medical breakthroughs, community wins — and we almost never hear about them. Outrage just converts better than hope.
Brightcast is my attempt to fix that:
🌱 Brightcast Impact Score (BIS)
— every story gets a verified score for hope, reach and credibility. Not vibes. Actual signals.
📰 An editorial layer on every article
— a "Why It Matters," a "Bigger Picture," and an "Apparently…" one-liner for when you only have 10 seconds.
🪙 Hope Coins
— reading and sharing funds real environmental and social projects. You're not just consuming, you're contributing.
It's live on iOS, Android and web, publishing ~180 stories an hour. All verified, all positive-but-not-naive.
What I'd genuinely love feedback on:
Does the Impact Score help you decide what to read, or is it noise?
Is the editorial layer useful, or too much?
What category feels under-represented?
And one open question for everyone here: what was the last piece of news that genuinely made your day?
