Motivation

We all live in a very busy world. Someone is getting late to catch a train, someone is getting late for an interview or a meeting, someone is getting late for exams, etc. But in all these chaos we still need to be up-to-date with all the latest developments around the world. The idea of the journalist writing news in shorts is the first thing that we come across but it is not such a good idea. So it is best to use a machine generated text. Now this machine generated text can’t be sourced from a single article. Thus our product gives the user fast, reliable and easy access to hundreds of news at just a click. This is the future of the newspapers and tv channels.
