How It Works

Three steps to a cleaner feed

Setting up Perceptive takes minutes. What you get back is hours — the ones you would have spent wading through noise.

01
Define Your Interests
Tell us what genuinely matters to you — "Climate Change", "Prediction Markets", "New Zealand Politics". Be as broad or as specific as you like. You can refine at any time.
02
Choose Your Sources
Select from a curated catalogue of respected publications — from local outlets like Stuff to international voices like The Guardian, The Economist, or the Harvard Business Review. Only sources you trust, ever.
03
Read Without Distraction
Your AI-powered feed surfaces only the stories that match your interests from your trusted sources. A brief summary for each article — click through when you want the full story.

What Makes Us Different

Not social media. Something better.

◎

You control the algorithm

Social media platforms feed you content based on what their algorithms predict will keep you engaged — a mixture of your inferred interests and whatever they can get away with advertising to you. On Perceptive, the algorithm is yours. It reflects what you told us, nothing more. No hidden incentive, no manipulation.

⊘

We will never sell your data

Our business model is a small subscription fee — full stop. We have no commercial reason to touch your data. You will never see advertising on Perceptive, and we will never "enshittify" this product. That's not just a promise; it's our entire economic logic.

↗

We support news sources

We act as an aggregator, not a content thief. We won't reproduce articles — just a brief summary and a link. When you want the full story, you click through to the source, and hopefully their subscription. Reliable journalism deserves to survive. We want to help make that happen.

◈

Distraction-free by design

No recommendations designed to pull you down a rabbit hole. No outrage-bait to keep you scrolling. No sponsored content blurring the line between news and marketing. Just the stories you asked for, cleanly presented, with nothing competing for your attention.

"We promise we will never enshittify Perceptive.News."
