Ground News is a news-comparison app, developed by Snapwise Inc., that aggregates coverage of the same story from outlets across the political spectrum and rates each source's bias and factuality. Every article page shows a visual breakdown of how left-leaning, center, and right-leaning outlets are covering a story, along with ownership and funding information for each publisher. A "Blindspot" feed highlights stories that are heavily covered on one side of the spectrum but ignored by the other.
The app targets readers who want to see how a story is being framed differently across the media landscape and reduce exposure to a single ideological bubble. Basic bias-comparison browsing is free, while paid Pro, Premium, and Vantage subscription tiers unlock features like ad-free browsing, blindspot alerts, and more detailed source-bias breakdowns.
Ground News is available on iOS, Android, and the web, along with a browser extension that overlays bias ratings on articles as users browse other news sites.
