Free to try — no account, no card
We pick the stories that matter, strip out the spin, and report just the facts — with sources. About five minutes a day.
5 min to finish
Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. Capped and dated — there is a bottom.
3 kinds of sources, split
Primary, independent coverage, and conversation — never blended.
Top slot for corrections
When facts change, the fix is pinned first. Nothing gets quietly edited.
$3/mo for Daily
Or $20 a year. Weekly is free — no account, no card.
Why we built it
There is no bottom, so there is no “done.” You close the app feeling behind, not caught up.
Outrage and urgency win the tap. The facts get buried under whatever makes you angriest.
Feeds rarely correct themselves. A story that turned out to be false keeps circulating as if it were true.
Xummary is built the other way around.
The product
Everything below is the real Xummary — the same screens you get the moment you open it.
Curated
Open today’s Daily: a numbered list of the stories that actually mattered, each one stripped of spin and written as plain facts. Ranked, capped, and dated — there is a bottom, and nothing pulls you back in. Jump to any day from the calendar.
Sourced
Primary, independent, and conversation sources are kept apart so you can see who actually said what. Open “Why is this here?” for the exact rule that put a story on your list. Provenance over partisanship — there is no left/center/right meter.
Self-correcting
Each Daily re-checks yesterday’s stories. If something changed, a Correction is pinned first: what we said, what’s true now, what changed. The original stays marked, never silently rewritten.
Yours
Tap Listen to hear any story in the same plain voice — on a walk, in the car, while the coffee brews. Follow the categories and the Local region you care about, save stories for later, and move through the list with J and K on desktop.
How it works
Today’s stories are waiting. No sign-up to try it.
Each story is short and stripped of spin. Sources and “why is this here?” are one tap away.
Close it. Nothing follows you, nothing buzzes, nothing refreshes.

Questions
Yes. Free Weekly gives you the week’s most significant stories with clearly labeled ads — no account and no card. Daily is $3 a month or $20 a year and adds the Daily and Monthly editions, Local, full search and history, and removes ads.
No. Xummary reads public conversation and primary sources for you. You never log in anywhere to read a story, and original posts stay linked so you can check them yourself.
Every selection is an editorial act, so we don’t claim “no bias.” We claim something you can check: published, mechanical rules; category quotas so one topic can’t take over the day; and a “Why is this here?” panel on every story. There is no left/center/right meter — those flatten reality and we don’t ship one.
Those are feeds: infinite, tuned to keep you scrolling, with headlines written to be tapped. Xummary is a short, dated list of the stories that mattered — each one stripped of spin and written as facts, with its sources — and when we get something wrong, the correction is pinned to the top.
Anytime. You keep access through the end of the period you paid for. Full refund within 14 days of purchase; after that, cancel at period end from the Stripe Customer Portal.
