Hunted byDylan BalzerDylan Balzer

Business, tech & startup news that actually fits our attention span. No long articles full of jargon and fluff. Short form swipable news that feels like your swiping on an Instagram slideshow. And everything is in Layman's terms so there's no looking up on ChatGPT "explain this to me like I'm 5". Even if you do have a question though, no need to app switch, there's an in app chatbot that will give you any answer without rambling on and on.

Hey all! There is more news out there than there ever has been. New startups raising money, data centers popping up, Waymo's crashing. But it's almost impossible to keep up. I built Layman because I worked in research in biotech incubation for 3.5 years before this, and realized how much jargon and fluff is in news articles. The whole world is going towards short form content, but we are still expected to read a 1,200 word article just to tell us what could've in a sentence. And no, this isn't another newsletter I promise!
