Naia: Ukraine News Explained

Naia is a daily news digest in Ukrainian. One issue a day: 10–15 top stories from Ukraine and the world, each a half-minute read. WHAT'S INSIDE • Eight sections: Ukrainian and world politics, economics, science, technology and AI, culture, design, UI/UX. • The gist in brief — and, separately, why it matters and what follows from it. • The source and a link to the original on every card, one tap away. STORIES, NOT ISOLATED HEADLINES Every item belongs to a story that runs for days or weeks. Under each card is its timeline: what came before and how the story developed. Older items gain new entries as the story moves on. SIDES OF THE STORY Who takes part in a story, what each side stands to gain, what it risks or where it stays silent — and the primary sources: statements, documents and posts from the parties themselves. KNOW WHO IS WRITING A source passport on every card: what kind of outlet it is, who pays for it, where it is edited and whether a paywall is waiting. DAILY PODCAST Listen to the issue: a short Naia podcast on the day's key stories. The player sits at the bottom of the feed, and you can scrub by dragging along the waveform. HOW IT WORKS Every night Naia reads more than thirty publications — from Ukrainska Pravda, Suspilne and Babel to Bloomberg, Nature, The Guardian and MIT Technology Review — picks what matters and retells it in Ukrainian. The selection, the summary and the analysis are produced by AI; a separate step checks every claim against its source and proofreads the language.
