The AI news that matters to you, reduced to one question.
Does this concern you? Signal is the editorial AI newspaper inside the platform. The weekly digest is the edition you get by email, with a free archive. No noise, just direction, with human final editing before anything goes out. Signal and the digest are written in Dutch.
No spam. An edited edition every week as long as there is news; you can unsubscribe at any time.
Every item ends with an honest answer.
A handful of items per edition, with a verdict per work profile on each item. Per item: what there is, what it means, and the fixed block: does this concern you? Yes or no, per profile. “Maybe” does not exist. Always with a source.
The first real item appears with the first edition. A person chooses, writes and decides.
Four profiles, four answers to the same headline.
The same news means something different to someone who builds for fun than to someone who makes a living from it. That is why each item carries not one verdict but four, one per work profile. Your work profile is the main switch of your account, and you choose it in the wizard. In the edition you also see what the other three get, because a verdict is only trustworthy when you can see where the line is.
hobbyYou build for yourself and earn nothing from it. Most items are a no here, and that is the point: it saves you the time of finding out yourself that something does not concern you.
side hustleMoney comes in alongside something else. Here the verdict almost always covers two questions at once: does it affect your clients, and does it affect your bookkeeping.
part-timeThe business is a fixed part of your week. The verdict gives more weight to how much time a switch costs, because you only have half of that time.
full-timeThis is your work. Here changes to prices, terms and the availability of tools get the most weight, because they directly affect what you can deliver.
What you never see is a maybe. A verdict that can go any way is not a verdict, and then the item does not belong in the edition. More about the profiles is on pricing and the export, and the bookkeeping side of it under the administration.
Curation is the product.
A machine writes the first draft, a person decides.
The chain is short on purpose and public on purpose. News comes in daily from a fixed list of sources: only the headline, a summary and the link. On Monday morning the platform bundles it into an edition and a language model writes a first draft. Then a person reads, changes and publishes, and that person carries the responsibility for what it says. That is also stated under every edition, in a fixed line.
Two things you should know here, because they limit the work. A published post can no longer be edited; a mistake means deleting it and starting again. And an edition cannot be started by hand: if there is no news worth it in a week, there is no edition. That is not a fault but the reason the rhythm can be a promise. The archive of the editions is readable by everyone.
