Good morning, Emily. Monday.

It's a good week to be in Oxford. The Rare Plant Fair at Kingston Bagpuize is on Sunday and your irises should be hitting their stride right about now. The world, however, is less serene. Peace talks with Iran stalled overnight after Trump pulled US envoys from Pakistan, though Iran has now offered to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The Epstein files keep giving: Peter Mandelson and Prince Andrew are both facing scrutiny this week. On a much better note, The Strokes just dropped their first single in six years.

Platform features

Built differently.
On purpose.

Every feature in Bulletin exists for a reason. Not to keep you scrolling longer. Not to sell your attention. To get you the best of what's out there, support the people who make it, and give you back your morning.

💸 Unique to Bulletin

Microtipping

See something that matters? Tip the journalist directly. Microtipping lets readers send small amounts straight to the publisher and writer behind a piece of work they like.

This is about changing the incentive structure of news itself. Right now, media is rewarded for virality, outrage, and clicks. Microtipping rewards quality and genuine recognition from real audiences. 90% goes directly to the publisher. No middleman. The rest of the 10% will be reinvested in the development of Bulletin, R&D, new commissions and distributed between our few shareholders who are early backers of the project.

☀️ Every morning

Your personalised morning briefing

Every morning Bulletin assembles a compact, considered selection just for you. Not a firehose of everything. A curated briefing of what matters to you today, chosen by you, from sources you can trust.

Powered by a small AI engine built in Europe, which you control both from the settings menu and by chatting with it directly. We do all this without selling your data or relying on American or Chinese platforms.

Quality signal

Smart article ratings

Bulletin's own algorithm rates content not just for relevance to you, but for its genuine intent, independence from vested interests, and editorial quality. We will publish this algorithm openly so anyone can scrutinise and use it.

👥 Community

Groups and communities

Bulletin builds around communities, not just individuals. Join groups based on your interests, neighbourhood, or values. Each community gets a curated feed tailored to what that group actually cares about.

💬 A Bulletin first

Live interactive search

Talk to your feed in real time. "More culture tonight." "Explain what's happening in Iran." "Show me events near me this weekend." Bulletin adjusts instantly. No other media platform gives you this kind of live control.

🌍

European AI, no Big Tech

The engine behind Bulletin runs on a compact European language model. No Silicon Valley algorithms. No data routed through American or Chinese servers. Tech sovereignty by design.

🚫

Ethical advertising only

Subscribers get a completely ad-free experience. Free users only see ethical, non-tracking ads that respect their privacy. No surveillance advertising. Ever.

🔒
