The new generation of news — made for the US
You don't have time for forty open tabs, and skimming headlines still leaves you finding out late about the things that move your own field. Jass is your AI-powered personal analyst on retainer: it does the week's research, verifies it against named sources, and writes one brief exclusively for one reader — you. In both newsletter and podcast format.

A one-minute taste of your podcast
Two hosts, named sources, made for one listener in the US: you.
A REAL ISSUE, ANONYMIZED
Read a real issue
This is what a Jass issue actually looks like — prepared for a reader in New York, personal details removed. Yours is researched from scratch, for you.
Most professionals answer information anxiety by reading more, later, and worse. It costs hours every week and still leaves the gaps that matter.
Five newsletters and a feed is an unpaid second shift — and none of it was chosen for your situation.
The ruling, deal or launch that reshapes your field rarely leads the news. You hear about it when someone mentions it in a meeting.
Ordinary coverage forgets last month, so the slow shifts that actually determine your next move stay invisible.
Jass replaces the entire routine with one researched brief a week.
Jass works the way a great analyst works: a standing brief on you, a week of real research, and a verdict you can act on in the time it takes to have a coffee.
Your city, your work, your interests and your own words become the standing brief. Every story is there because it bears on your life — ranked by how directly, so the first thing you read is the thing that matters most to you.
Jass gathers from named outlets and primary documents, corroborates each claim independently, and labels it: corroborated, single source, or unconfirmed. You never have to guess how much weight a line can carry.
Beyond what happened: the second-order consequences for your situation, plus two to four concrete recommendations. You finish the brief knowing what to do, not just what occurred.
Jass remembers every issue and follows the long threads behind your topics, so you see the arc ordinary coverage hides — and you walk into the room with the context nobody else brought.
Every story arrives built like this, which is why twenty minutes leaves you genuinely informed instead of vaguely aware.
Relevance
Directly affects you · Shapes your field · Worth knowing.
What happened
The facts, dates and figures, attributed as you read them.
Sources
The real outlets and primary documents behind the item, linked.
Verification
Corroborated, single source or unconfirmed — never dressed up as more.
Why this matters to you
Strategic analysis of your own situation, then 2–4 concrete recommendations.
Editorial note
Where the evidence is thin: who is claiming it, what interest they have, what to watch.
A single week hides the arc. Jass tracks each storyline across issues and months, names its trajectory, and tells you what it means for you.
Every trend is updated as new evidence arrives — including when it contradicts what Jass told you last month.
