Cartesian crisis

Major time saver

I am a business owner and have a hard time setting aside time to keep up with the latest. This gives me a single place I can go to cut through to what is important. Worth a download.

Finally, something honest

I am so tired of opening my phone and seeing nothing but uncertainty. What we read online isn't always true, and it has become so difficult to decipher real facts from fiction or a preconceived narrative. This app feels like the first thing that actually helps. Instead of giving you a generic, made-up summary, it protects the integrity of factual information. We need to focus on sharing real facts, and this app makes it incredibly simple to spot reliable sources. It points you straight to the proof in an article or video so you can see the truth for yourself without any guesswork. When we can read the absolute truth, it empowers all of us to be more knowledgeable and truly be accountable for our convictions.

Skim has become my companion with YouTube - any time I watch a podcast I will pull up its Skim so I can through the most important things in there. It must have saved me hours and I’ve only had it for a few days. Big fan.
