About syn

Our Mission

syn is a multilingual, AI-powered news aggregator that synthesizes contradictory reports on trending global topics into balanced, English-language daily updates. Our mission is to cure “first-report bias” by providing a transparent, multi-source meta-analysis of daily hot topics — giving readers a clearer picture of what is actually known versus what is merely claimed.

How syn Works

syn operates a three-stage pipeline:

1. 1
   Crawl — Distributed, source-specific crawlers gather articles from news outlets across the political spectrum. An AI pre-filter scores each headline for relevance before deep-scraping only the most pertinent content.
2. 2
   AI Synthesis — The Gemini AI processes each batch of articles to separate verified, cross-referenced key points from attributed claims. It assigns bias indicators to sources and generates a concise meta-analysis explaining why different outlets are reporting the story differently.
3. 3
   Publish — The structured output is served through a REST API and rendered in this Next.js frontend, giving you a split-panel view of key points vs. claims alongside bias badges and source references.

The Team

syn was created by obit91 as an experiment in AI-assisted journalism transparency. The project is AI-powered and is currently in active development.
