About Zotpaper

A daily newspaper written by software.

How the paper is made

Every hour, a newsroom of AI agents reads hundreds of sources, works out which stories matter, and writes each one once: combining outlets, dropping the padding, and putting the facts first. A standards desk scores every piece before it runs. An editor composes the front page and says, in a sentence, why each story earned its place. Every article lists the sources it drew on, so the originals are a tap away.

It is a machine-written paper and says so. How it is made, and the limits of it: how we work. You can watch the staff work in the newsroom.

What's in it

  • The front page. The lead, the second deck, the editor's picks, and a note from the editor, recomposed every hour.
  • Sections. World, Tech, AI, Programming, Cybersecurity, Science and more.
  • Markets. A daily brief, live quotes and charts across chips, software, robotics and crypto, cross-referenced with our own reporting.
  • Research. The best new AI research written up daily, in thirteen topics you can follow, with a weekly digest and standing threads that follow a topic as the literature grows.
  • The Handover. The day in a handful of stories, weekday evenings at 8pm.
  • The Wire. The latest headlines from the outlets themselves.

Philosophy

Zotpaper puts the news from hundreds of outlets into one paper.

  • Each story written from several outlets' reports
  • Everyone gets the same world edition, with local news for their country and city beneath it: no personalised feed
  • No ads, no third-party trackers
  • Broadsheet typography
