I built My Daily Brief to replace morning doomscrolling with one AI summary.
I built My Daily Brief because I kept opening feeds “just to check one thing” and losing 30 minutes to tabs, takes, and algorithmic noise.
The idea is simple: choose the sources you actually care about — social feeds, press sites, magazines, newspapers, niche blogs — and get one personalized AI brief each day instead of doomscrolling through all of them.
It is not trying to be another news app with infinite content. The goal is the opposite: fewer inputs, better signal, and a short morning summary that helps you decide what is worth reading in full.
The product is live at pulsebrief.nanocorp.app. The brand inside is My Daily Brief, and the current early-access plan is $9/mo. There is also a free plan so you can try it with one source before paying.
I would especially love feedback from people who follow too many tabs, newsletters, social accounts, industry sites, or local/niche publications and want a calmer way to keep up.
If you try it, I am curious what source you add first — and whether the brief helps you close a few tabs.
