About us

We built the news reader we wished existed.

Split Angle started with a simple frustration. To understand a single story, you had to open five tabs, compare five framings, and work out for yourself where they agreed and where they didn’t. Most people don’t have time for that, so they read one source and assume it is the whole picture. We thought the reading itself should do that work for you.

What we believe

No single newsroom has a monopoly on the truth. Each one brings its own sources, its own emphasis, and its own blind spots. Read one and you get one view. Read several and the shape of the story comes into focus: the facts everyone agrees on, the details still in dispute, the angles one outlet noticed and another missed.

That comparison used to be a luxury reserved for people with the time to do it. Our job is to make it the default. We gather how every newsroom covered an event, line their reporting up side by side, and hand you the spread in one place. You stay the one who decides what to make of it.

We are not here to tell you what to think. We are here to make sure you have seen enough to think clearly.

What we stand for

Readers first, always

We make money from readers who find us worth paying for, not from selling your attention to the highest bidder. That keeps our incentives pointed in one direction: being useful to you.

Credit where it is due

Every story links straight back to the newsrooms that reported it. We send readers and recognition to the journalists doing the hard work. We organise their reporting, we never pass it off as ours.

Plain over loud

We pick the calmest, clearest version of a headline over the one engineered to make you angry. Informing you quickly matters more to us than keeping you scrolling.

Honest about what we are

We are an aggregator, not an oracle. We show you the coverage and how it lines up. Where sources disagree, we say so rather than papering over it with a tidy single answer.

See a story from every angle.
