Plain is a news platform with no ads, no clickbait, and no autoplay videos. It’s fully user-supported, so we answer to readers, not corporations or advertisers. Our AI editorial engine analyzes dozens of major sources, synthesizes the facts, and writes straightforward news without sensationalism or bias. Stories are ranked by consequence and urgency, not the level of outrage they'll cause.
Plain started from a personal frustration: I couldn’t find a news site that simply told me what happened without making me feel like I was under assault.
Modern news sites still treat the internet like television: unavoidable ads, cluttered interfaces, autoplay videos, and endless engagement bait.
The entire pipeline runs on about an $8/day API budget. Every hour, Plain aggregates RSS feeds from dozens of major sources, an AI editorial engine ranks stories by consequence rather than engagement, and the site rebuilds automatically.
No team. No ads. Just a belief that news should be clean, readable, and free from the trappings of modern media.

Who hunted Plain?
Plain was hunted by Andrew Dobrow. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
