## What is Balance News?

Read the news without getting trapped in one publisher's frame.

Balance News groups public reporting about the same event, shows which rated publishers are covering it, and lets you compare the headlines side by side. It is designed for readers who want more context without more noise.

YOUR DAILY EDITION
• A calm front page spanning world news, politics, business, technology, science, and climate
• Reporting refreshed when you open or pull to refresh
• Fast source links and an on-device cache for degraded connections

COMPARE COVERAGE
• A left, center, and right coverage seam for rated publishers
• Headline framing comparison across clustered reports
• A complete source trail that sends you to the original publishers
• Unrated sources remain clearly marked instead of being treated as center

FIND BLINDSPOTS
• Coverage gaps appear only after at least two independently rated publishers report a story
• One free blindspot gives everyone a useful look at the signal
• Balance News Plus unlocks the full blindspot desk as coverage changes

KNOW THE SOURCE
• Searchable publisher profiles
• Political lean, factuality, ownership, country, and state-funding context where available
• Publisher ratings are context—not a verdict on an individual article

FREE
• Daily news desk
• Basic coverage seam
• One blindspot
• Source directory
• Links to the primary reporting

BALANCE NEWS PLUS
• Full headline framing comparisons
• Complete source trails for clustered stories
• Unlimited blindspots
• Monthly and yearly plans, with any available trial and current localized price shown before purchase

Balance News has no ads, no third-party analytics, no tracking, and no account requirement. Processing, clustering, and publisher context are provided on device. Balance News does not produce original reporting and may occasionally group or label coverage imperfectly. Verify consequential information with the linked publishers.
