This is fascinating. I just tried searching `india heat waves` and was very impressed with the results. I also really love the summarised highlights, score details, as well as the source bias. Also love your `Under-reported` section! Will definitely be making this a part of my search toolbox.

Everything today seems politicized - science, healthcare, even sports! But if you're like us and just want the facts, that's increasingly hard to come by as Google's opaque approach can seem one-sided at times or, even worse, just not credible. We built The Factual's search to make it easy to find the most credible stories across the political spectrum using a transparent ratings approach that prioritizes expertise rather than popularity. Hope you find this useful. Feedback is appreciated! PS: If you're curious about the ratings algorithm, more details are available here:https://www.thefactual.com/how-i...

As someone who does online research frequently and relies heavily on news articles, this search function is excellent for exploring a wide range of high-quality content at the click of a button. Google is fine, but when searching on news topics, it's not always clear to the reader who you are likely to see first or how reliable each site will be. This search function by The Factual represents an exciting tool and a big improvement in that regard!

Nice idea Arjun! We needed this at the start of the pandemic! Good luck with it 👍🏼

This looks so cool! As a current Factual newsletter reader, I love this option. What's the best way to get to the news search? Through the website? Will there be a link in the newsletter?

Thanks for adding the search feature, The Factual team! A much needed improvement.

I love the transparency of this. How many different news sites are included in the grades? How are they chosen?

I love The Factual. Its my best news source, though I do still use Google Discover for news too. But for real news, The Factual is my go to. Great product, great features, great mission. We need more people to care about facts in the news and this is one of the best and easiest ways I know of to be both informed and clarify our understanding of 'truth' in the world and be responsible in transmitting factual and nuanced perspectives through our interactions with others. Thanks @juicemoorthy

Another way to get news with a filter for bias and ability to see multiple views on an issue! Bravo!! 👏

I've been using The Factual since August of 2020. They've been constantly improving over time, but I've got to say, this new search feature is literally something the world has never seen before. I really appreciate being able to dig down into a specific news subject that I want to learn more about, and know that I'm getting factual data. This search tool lets me clearly see and understand both sides of a divisive argument, with the articles significantly free of spin. This is a unique capability, as far as I am aware. Besides The Factual, I haven't seen this feature offered by any news aggregator in the world. Plus, being able to filter out news stories that are hidden behind paywalls means that I know that every article I see in my search results, I can read without interference.

As a long time user and subscriber. I love the “under reported” stories a lot, and this new addition is amazing. I hadn’t been up to speed on the Disney vs Florida topic, and when there was enough chatter I searched for that and got a rich collection of articles from all sides that helped me form an informed perspective. Love it.

Looks really interesting. Will check it out. While I don't always (or maybe even rarely) agree with the other side of an issue, I do commonly want to see / read them to understand that viewpoint -- yet, I really don't want to give some of these outlets the clicks 🙂. This could help!

The idea is brilliant, hope that realization - too. Defiantly will try! Good luck!

Exceptional

Been subscribed for a while and love the newsletter. Best way I've found of getting the most relevant news and also different POVs. Love this new feature.

Exited to try this out guys! I've been a paid customer for a few years of their flagship product, and I don't think there is a better way to ingest the news of the world these days. It makes sense that you could take the same algo and do this.

Love the newsletter and love this natural progression to add search! Excited to see this as an alternative to Google News

The Factual newsletter is my number one daily news feed so this is a great extension of the technology behind it! Surfacing the bias and credibility really helps when looking news critically (something I'd never thought would be so important, but here we are with the media landscape these days)
