Getting started with Ajako Taja

Ajako Taja brings together the stories that many news outlets are reporting and turns each one into a short, readable summary, so you can stay informed in less time. Articles are drafted with AI from the outlets' own reports and published by a person on our team.

What you'll find on the site

• Home: the top story, a Trending this week list, the Most covered stories, and the latest stories by category.
• Trending: every recent story in one list, with filters for time, category and keywords, and three ways to sort.
• Categories: a page for each topic area, newest stories first.
• For You: a feed of the topics you choose to follow (needs a free account).
• Search: look up a keyword, a topic or a #hashtag.

A quick way to catch up

1. Open the Trending page

   Choose Trending in the header (or the bottom bar on a phone). It opens on today's stories, with those covered by the most outlets first.

2. Pick a story

   Each card shows the category, how long ago it was published, how many outlets covered it and the reading time.

3. Read the summary

   The AI Summary at the top of the article gives you the story in a few lines. The rest of the article adds the key details and background.

4. Check the original reporting

   Scroll to How outlets covered it to see every outlet the article is based on, with links to their own articles.
