Brief is an AI-powered news platform co-founded by two 16-year-olds, Ayaan Zaveri and Zain Pirani, designed to deliver quick, clear, and trustworthy news summaries called "bites." Unlike traditional news outlets, Brief allows users to generate their own news bites on any topic, blending automated AI summarization with user-generated content for greater relevance and diversity.
Core Features:
AI-Generated "Bites": The platform uses AI to scan numerous sources on a given topic, synthesizing the information into a concise, neutral summary.
User-Generated "Bites": A key differentiator, Brief empowers users to research and create their own "bites" on topics they are passionate about. This user-generated content is featured alongside AI-generated news, creating a rich and diverse content library.
Multi-Source Aggregation: Every bite is linked to multiple sources, allowing users to verify information and delve deeper into the original articles, promoting transparency and combating bias.
AI-Powered Audio: Each bite includes an audio playback option, narrated in a natural, podcast-style tone using ElevenLabs' advanced voice synthesis. This caters to on-the-go consumption and user preference for audio content.
"Explain Like I’m 5" (ELI5) Mode: For complex topics, users can select an ELI5 mode that breaks down the subject into its simplest terms, making it accessible to everyone, regardless of prior knowledge.
