## What is The Nexus?

The Nexus is news intelligence that shows its work.

Most apps hand you a headline and ask you to trust it. The Nexus traces every claim to its source, surfaces where outlets contradict each other instead of smoothing it over, and synthesizes a broad network of news outlets and public-data feeds into something you can actually act on.

Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

WHAT YOU GET

• Daily Briefing — the day's most-corroborated stories, synthesized with every claim cited to its original source.

• Storylines — see how a story develops across outlets over time, with the number of independent sources reporting it.

• Contradiction tracking — when sources disagree, we show you the disagreement rather than picking a side.

• Claim Check — paste a claim or a link and see how it holds up against the source record.

• China Watch — focused coverage of an area most outlets undercover, organized by theme.

• Watchlists — track the people, organizations, topics, or regions you care about and get notified when something new matches.
