About the startup

Gist turns the day's US news into a deck of swipeable cards, providing neutral 60-word summaries designed for quick consumption. Users can catch up through a finite Daily Briefing, test their knowledge with a news quiz, and maintain reading streaks. The app features multiple sections including Business, Tech, and Science, offers offline reading for pre-loaded cards, and includes full-text search without requiring an account or sign-in.
