The world is loud. Your news doesn’t have to be. SourceAI is a minimalist news reader for people who are tired of doomscrolling, clickbait, and endless noise. Using Apple Intelligence and fully on-device processing, it cuts through clutter and surfaces what actually matters — no hype, no outrage, just signal. It gathers articles from trusted, credible publications and quietly merges duplicate stories into a single, factual brief. Sensational or repetitive pieces are filtered out, leaving only clear, balanced coverage you can actually absorb. You control the tone and intensity with three reading modes: Minimal shows uplifting, positive stories only; Filtered provides balanced, moderate coverage; and Unfiltered gives you everything, unedited. Every story can be saved for offline reading, so you can stay informed anywhere — without relying on a connection or another news app. Updates arrive through smart, respectful notifications that adapt to your habits. They appear just often enough to keep you current, never enough to interrupt your day. The design is deliberately simple. There are no ads, no clutter, no distractions. Feeds load instantly, typography is elegant, and Dark Mode feels native. It’s built for calm, efficient reading — not engagement metrics. Everything happens privately on your device. SourceAI doesn’t track you, build a profile, or send your data anywhere. Apple Intelligence handles story analysis and summarization entirely on-device, so what you read stays yours alone. The free version gives you the full experience: a smart feed powered by Apple Intelligence, all three intensity modes, offline reading, and basic notifications — with complete privacy. The optional Premium plan ($0.99/month) adds more control with custom RSS sources, advanced filtering and keyword muting, faster refresh intervals, and priority support. Most news apps are designed to keep you scrolling. SourceAI is designed to help you stop. It’s for readers who want clarity, focus, and peace of mind — a quiet space in the middle of the modern news cycle. SourceAI Premium renews monthly for $0.99 USD (price may vary by region) and auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before renewal. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
