The news, first

An AI editor-in-chief guides the overall voice, style, and content of the news you read every day.

One front page, six stories, plus six news desks

Every day we sweep the news across six categories — Sports, Markets, Politics, Culture, Discovery, World — and curate one front page, The Daily Six, of the stories that matter. No feed, no doomscroll, no ads… just six headlines.

Every story comes with context

Behind each headline sits the brief — about 280 words on what's happening, why it matters, and what to follow. Read all six to stay informed and lean into each category for additional stories that dig a little deeper.

Then you PLAY THE NEWS!

Here's the twist: every headline is a yes or no call, your prediction on what's to come, and we track your results as events unfold. Every evening we keep score and that's the game the rest of this page is about…

The main event

Every game starts with two

Invite a friend to play in a head-to-head game. You both answer the same six questions every day, results land in the evening, and whoever has the most correct calls Sunday through Saturday takes the week. Ties are a real result — no tiebreakers. The rivalry record keeps the receipts, week after week. Bragging rights are on the line.

How it works

    The Daily Six lands every morning — important stories with wide appeal from each desk, the front page news in yes/no form. Swipe left for NO. Swipe right for YES. Long press to double down if you’re feeling confident or tap any question for context. Still curious? Open the back pages using the title drop down menu and answer even more questions on your favorite topics.

    Results

    Results land every evening — each question settled by AI against the record, each one published with reasoning. Gold for every correct answer, coins for every call you get right, and a clear look at how your judgement compares to the community. Share your results and the “I CALLED IT” moment, when you went against the crowd and got it right. Play every day and your streak builds — it's the number your friends will chase.

    Challenge

    Find disagreement among your friends? Certain they have one wrong? Challenge them on it with the coins you’ve earned. They can accept, counter with more coins, or pass — and the events of the day will settle it. The winner takes all and every challenge feeds a running record against that rival. Accumulate coins to climb the monthly public leaderboard.

Six desks

The front page and sections

Sports, Markets, Politics, Culture, Discovery, World — one question per desk makes The Daily Six, and other stories can be read in each section. Nothing is off the table. Become more aware of the news of the day and an expert on the topics you care about the most. What keeps a question fair is that it has to settle on a verifiable fact.

The story so far

The news doesn't end in a day

A war, an earthquake, a tariff deadline — the stories that matter run for weeks, and one question can only ever ask about one day of them. So Predict Six threads them. Every question you answer becomes a chapter of its story, kept in order, with your call sitting beside the result and your record on that story running underneath. Open a thread and you get what happened, what you said, and what's still open.

From duels to dynasties

Groups & Teams

A duel becomes a group the moment a third friend joins — same six questions, one leaderboard, group chat, and challenges all around. Take it further: form a Team with its own crest and go head-to-head against other teams in weekly matchups, with a weekly MVP and team rankings on the line.

The philosophy

Why Predict Six

Anticipated, not addictive

A tiny tradition: six questions, two minutes, then back to your life. Predict Six is built to be looked forward to — not engineered to keep you scrolling.

Brief, satisfying, complete

Six questions. A defined open window. A clean resolution. Every interaction has a beginning, a middle, and an end. You put your phone down feeling better, not drained.

Clever, not cruel

Wit is welcome. Belittling is not. The questions and images have a voice — dry, curious, a little playful — but they don't punch down and they don't pick sides. Curiosity over conflict, every time.

The data product

The Predict Six Index

Every Sunday afternoon, we publish a transparent scorecard: community accuracy across the Sunday–Saturday week that just closed, broken out by category. The questions our users got most right. The ones we missed.

  • Six categories. Sports, Markets, Politics, Culture, Discovery, World — each scored independently so you can see where the crowd reads the world best.
  • Open methodology. Raw majority. Voided questions excluded. Sample size and limitations stated up front. Built to be cited, not just consumed.
  • Permanent archive. Every week gets a stable URL. Reporters can quote any past week confidently — methodology is locked once published.

The magic of six

Six just works

A number woven through the fabric of how the world counts itself.
