> One daily update: We publish once per day around noon UTC, creating a natural endpoint to news consumption. This is a deliberate design choice that turns news from an endless habit into a contained ritual. I might not agree with all decisions Kagi makes, but this is gold. Endless scrolling is a big indicator that you're a consumer not a customer.

I'm not affiliated, but I've used https://www.memeorandum.com/ for more than a decade. Gives me a good high-level view of the news. I'm a Kagi customer and I definitely don't want anything they do with the news.

> I'm a Kagi customer and I definitely don't want anything they do with the news. Can you expand on why?

It's not their lane. There are other solutions that exist which are fine. Maybe I was too quick to judge, I don't know. Maybe I'll be surprised in a good way.

Indeed! A once per day human-curated news aggregation feed used to be called a "newspaper". You can still get them in some places, I believe.

This isn't really comparable. A newspaper is a single source. New York Times is a newspaper, CNN (a part of it) is a newspaper. Services like Kagi News, whether AI or human-curated, try to do aggregation and meta-analysis of many newspaper.

Newspapers routinely report what other newspapers said. The original(s) is the one "breaking" the story, the others are "covering" the story.
