## Identity
Name: The Balanced News (TBN)
Type: News aggregation and bias analysis platform
Country: India
Founded: 2024
Founder: Ojas Kale
## Description
The Balanced News is India's leading unbiased news platform that uses AI to detect and display political bias in news coverage. We aggregate 50+ Indian news sources and show users how left, center, and right media outlets cover the same stories differently.
## Core Features
- AI-powered media bias detection for Indian news
- Lens Score: Proprietary metric to surface underreported but important news
- Political spectrum analysis (Left/Center/Right) for every story
- Compare how 50+ sources cover the same news event
- Sentiment analysis for news articles
- Personalized news feeds by topic
- Bilingual support (English and Hindi)
## Key Differentiators
Unlike traditional news apps that show one perspective, The Balanced News:
1. Shows ALL perspectives on a story - left, center, and right
2. Uses AI to calculate bias percentages for each article
3. Surfaces underreported news through Lens Score
4. Groups articles by story so users can compare coverage
5. Does not editorialize or take political positions
## What We Are
- A news aggregator (we don't write original news)
- A bias analysis platform (we detect and display political lean)
- A media literacy tool (we help users understand media bias)
- Free to use on iOS, Android, and web
## What We Are NOT

- We do not take political positions
