MEDIA BITE

The day's news cut to the bone — 60-second clips and short written summaries you can finish before your stop.

  • Short-form news
  • Editor-written
  • Every morning

What MEDIA BITE actually does

One digest, before the day starts

Editors read the wires overnight and send a single list of what moved. Headline, three lines, done — not a newsletter you scroll past.

Clips cut to sixty seconds

Video stories trimmed to the part that matters, vertical, captioned, watchable with the sound off on a train.

A feed you can actually tune

Pick the beats you follow and mute the ones you don't. The feed shifts with what you finish, not with what you accidentally tapped.

Alerts with a threshold

Breaking means breaking. We set a bar for what earns a push, so your lock screen stays quiet between the stories that don't wait.

Every summary keeps its source

Each bite carries the outlet it came from and a tap through to the full piece, for the days you do want the long version.

From the people reading it

★★★★★
I finish the digest before the kettle boils and I still know what happened. That was the whole ask.
Nadia
★★★★☆
The clips are the right length. Sixty seconds, captions on, no intro music, no presenter clearing their throat.
Tomas
★★★★★
My phone used to buzz for everything. Now it buzzes maybe twice a week, and both times it mattered.
