Aggregation that stays current
Duplicate coverage becomes one story. When new facts arrive, the summary is refined in place and read stories come back badged updated, never fake unread.
Why NewsGator exists
I was tired of reading the same story five times.
I wanted AI to help me read only what matters to me, and to spare me from skipping, again and again, articles I had already read somewhere else.
I'm not originally an Apple developer, but I already had an AI stack at home. So my first version was a server running next to my Mac Studio, with MLX models. After a few weeks, I realised it just worked, and really well.
It also showed me the problem: asking someone to run an AI server just to read the news is a huge ask. I didn't want to sell hardware, or take big financial risks for an open source project. Then Apple Intelligence arrived. On-device first, Private Cloud Compute when possible: it clicked immediately. Now anyone can have this in their pocket, with no server and no account.
And one thing I care about a lot: when you really want to read a story, you go to the website. NewsGator never tries to replace the people writing the news. Independent press needs those visits.
I use it every day, I think of a new feature every day, and I can't wait for you to try it.
