A veracity-weighted news feed
News weighted by truth, not volume.
Maat reads across the open web in English, Portuguese and French, scores how well each story actually holds up — corroboration over spread — and attaches a confidence read to everything it surfaces.

Why Maat
Built to trust corroborated truth over loud consensus.
Most feeds rank by reach. Maat asks a different question of every story: how well does it actually hold up?
Loud isn't true
Maat counts how many independent sources stand a story up. Wire reprints, citation cascades and same-owner outlets collapse to a single voice — thirty echoes of one unverified figure count as one thin thread, not thirty.
A confidence read on every story
Not a black box, and not a feed someone curated for you. Every story carries a confidence read you can see — and open, to find exactly why it's rated the way it is.
A genuinely wider lens
Most apps quietly centre the US and the Anglo-American press. Maat weights against that, drawing on sources across languages and regions, so world news reads like the world — not one corner of it.
Sources earn trust by being right
Maat tracks whether sources tell the truth over time — judged against what actually proved out, never against the consensus of the moment. The outlet that breaks a true story early is rewarded, not punished for leaving the herd.
Yours, and private
Tell Maat your topics in plain language. It tunes the feed and re-ranks to your taste on your own device — your reading stays with you. Built in Europe, with no trackers and no ads.
How it judges
Corroboration over spread.
A hundred outlets reprinting one wire story isn't a hundred witnesses. It's one. Maat finds the independent originators behind a claim and weights primary sources — a named official, a filed document, on-the-ground reporting — above any amount of secondary repetition.
Read the news by how well it holds up.
