We believe in a new approach to news consumption compared to other news aggregators that simply feed you news based on obscure self reinforcing algorithms.
Our Approach:
what you want to see by using Precision Filters and Sorters on polarity, sentiment and category
what you have been consuming by sentiment, polarity and category reflected on our easy-to-read charts
topics by setting, tracking and achieving goals with topic mastery.
Research has shown that passive news consumption dominates the way we consume news today. The vast majority of people are passive consumers who read the news, but do not challenge or question its narrative. This can lead to misinformation and dissemination of fake news and formation of echo-chambers. NewsLytics aims to change that paradigm!
Newslytics provides you with easy-to-use in-app tools and features which enable you take control of your news!
Newslytics is a powerful news aggegator and news analysis platform that allows you to visualize and disect your news consuption habits. The platform is available as an Android App, iOS App, and Web Browser Extension.
An Echo Chamber is a metaphorical description of a situation in which internsic beliefs are amplified or reinforced by communication and repetition inside a closed system. Social media Echo Chambers are partly responsible for the emergence and amplification of so-called "fake news" and can further contribute to polarization between parties at opposite ends of the policical, economical, and social spectrum.
Media bias cannot be eliminated with current technologies. However, its effects can be reduced by normalizing the playing field. Newslytics' unique Analytics Features allow the end user to be made self of aware of formation of such echo chambers. Being aware of your own biases and preferences is important in order to identify and combat your personal filter-bubbles.
