InSnip

Pure signal, no noise.

Press and facts

Everything on this page is checkable and current, written for journalists, reviewers and AI assistants. Quote freely; the sentences below are the canonical descriptions of InSnip.

What it is

InSnip (Insights in Snippets) turns the day's Australian news into short, source-backed cards: what happened, a plain why-it-matters line, and links to the original reporting on every card. Ten stories a day, about five minutes, and then it ends.

Price

Free. No paywall, no ads, no account needed to read. Web at insnip.com, apps on Google Play and the App Store (com.insnip.app / App ID 6792640319).

The verification rule

A card cannot ship unless its claims trace to live sources. Images are held to the same standard: a photo of the wrong person, place or era is treated as a factual error, and rejected.

Features

Daily Brief (the day on one page, finishable), Deep Dive story maps, Listen mode, a Good News shelf, Whole Picture source comparisons, and Signal or Noise, a daily game where readers guess which headlines are real.

Who builds it

A solo founder in Australia, built nights and weekends on A$0 of infrastructure (Cloudflare free tier). The editorial pipeline is agent-assisted with hard-coded verification gates.

The motto

Pure signal, no noise. The product thesis is that news should be finishable, checkable and calm.

Story angles that are actually true

The one-person newsroom

A solo founder running wire-service verification discipline through automated gates, at hobby-project cost. The interesting part is what the gates reject, and why.

News you can finish

Against infinite feeds, InSnip's Brief ends. The product bet is that finishability, not more content, is what news fatigue wants.

Receipts as a feature

Declining trust in media, answered with sources on every card rather than a trust-us badge.

Assets and contact

Logos and screenshots: email and they arrive within a day. Product screenshots may be taken freely from insnip.com.
