Five must-know stories in under a minute, every weekday morning.
The news cycle is constant, messy, and often overwhelming. Most people don’t have time to sort through dozens of headlines every morning, just like they don’t have time to read an entire medical chart. That’s why vitals exist: to capture what matters most. We created News Vitals to do the same for the news. Our goal is to make it easy for busy people to stay sharp: five essential stories, explained clearly each morning, so you can move through the day informed.
Each morning, AI scans trusted outlets for the most important stories from the past 24 hours. We focus on politics, business, the economy, technology, science, health, and global affairs.
The system weighs signals like recency, cross-outlet coverage, and real-world impact to choose the top five stories. It leaves out sports, celebrity gossip, and other distractions.
AI drafts a short, neutral summary for each story, with just enough context to understand why it matters. Each one links to the original reporting so you can go deeper if you want.
News Vitals is written by AI with human oversight. Sources are always linked. We strive for accuracy, but mistakes can happen, so please double-check important details. If you spot an error, let us know and we’ll correct it. Our goal is to keep this newsletter as factual and useful as possible.
