The brief

News from the places the headlines skip.

International news circles the same few countries. Lexy Originals covers the rest, with three Global South stories a day, built for voice and capped with a quick quiz.

The stories others skip

Consequential news from across the Global South, not the same few capitals.

Built for the ear

Short and narrated, three stories your audience can finish in minutes.

Engagement built in

A quick quiz turns a passive read into something your audience plays and remembers.

Editorial standards

Edited to a standard, not scraped.

Every edition runs against written editorial rules for relevance, source quality, country balance, and clarity, and a managing editor sends weak stories back until they meet the bar.

Clear story criteria

Stories must be timely, consequential, and useful beyond the daily news cycle.

Deliberate country mix

Coverage rotates across regions so the same countries do not dominate every edition.

Source led summaries

Every brief is tied back to the reporting it came from.

Fact checked before release

Names, numbers, dates, and claims are checked against source material.

One version of record

The written brief, narration, captions, and quiz all come from the same source text.

Voice ready writing

Scripts are edited for spoken clarity, not just written summary.

How it works

A newsroom desk, run as a team of agents.

More than a dozen specialized agents search, select, verify, write, edit, and publish every edition, the way a fifteen-person desk would, several times a day.

1

Search

A researcher gathers far more of the day's reporting than will ever run, across dozens of countries.

2

Select

A scout shortlists the day and an editor picks three stories by judgment, not by how widely they were covered.

3

Write

A correspondent turns the verified facts into a short brief built for the ear.

4

Edit

A managing editor checks every fact against independent reporting and sends weak stories back until they meet the bar.

5

Narrate

Creates native quality audio in each supported language.

6

Publish

Delivers the brief to web, phone, RSS, and the companion quiz.

The economics

Newsroom-grade coverage, without the newsroom.

Running daily multilingual world coverage used to take a full production desk. Now it is a brief you embed.

Then

Global daily coverage meant producers, editors, narrators, and a budget to match.

Now

Lexy Originals is a finished brief you add to your property in minutes.

Still human-led

People set the standard and a managing editor enforces it on every edition, sending back anything that does not measure up.

For your audience

Hear it your way.

The same brief works on your page, over the phone, or from a QR code, with no app to install.

On the page

Embedded on your site, your audience listens, reads along, and takes the quiz.

By phone

A phone number plays the same brief for callers, no app required.

From a QR code

Drop a QR on print, signage, or a campaign and it opens today's edition.

Punctuation You Can Hear

Audio has no typography. How a four-note violin phrase, a one-second beat, and a spoken transition became the punctuation system of the Lexy news brief.

E Pluribus Unum

Out of many tools, one builder. Out of many roles, one workflow. The phrase chosen in 1782 to describe a nation now describes a fundamental shift in how things get built.
