Project Borderless

One event, every side. Neutral coverage of US politics.

The problem

Every big story gets told differently depending on who is covering it. Figuring out what actually happened, versus how it is being spun, means reading five outlets and coming away exhausted.

Why I built it

I wanted to read the news without picking a side: the facts everyone agrees on in one place, and the loaded language each side uses made obvious.

What it does
  • Clusters coverage of a single event from left, center, and right outlets, with each outlet's lean labeled from published methodologies (AllSides, Ad Fontes), not my opinion.
  • Separates the shared facts everyone reports from how each side frames them.
  • A daily email digest and a full, searchable archive.
Could this work for you?

The real value here is the pattern, not the topic, and it travels. A few ways the same idea could work for something of yours:

Any polarized topic

The same side-by-side treatment for a divisive issue in your field or community.

Media monitoring

Show a team how a story, or a competitor, is being framed across different sources.

Any compare-the-sources tool

Anywhere the value is neutrality and making bias visible.

Want a version of this for your own idea? That's a great first conversation.
