About HerdNews
Don't worry, we'll tell you what to think!
HerdNews is your daily news briefing — stripped of filler, loaded with opinion, and served with zero apologies. We read the news so you don't have to think. Each morning, our very human team scours headlines from top sources and distills them into short, opinionated story cards you can absorb in minutes.
How It Works
- Fetch — We pull stories from trusted news wires and outlets every day.
- Digest — Each story is summarised, categorised, and given an outrage level from 1–5.
- Opine— We craft a "Herd-Approved Opinion" plus conversation starters so you sound informed at brunch.
- Serve — Stories land on HerdNews every morning, ready for your scroll.
Why "Herd"?
Because following the crowd is underrated. In a world of infinite hot takes, sometimes you just want someone to hand you the "correct" opinion. We do that — so you can get back to your life. Thinking is overrated. Belonging is forever.
