From Search to Discovery: The Next Era of Information

We live in a golden age of information. Every hour, something new launches: an AI tool, a market shift, a funding round, a game-changing insight. Founders, investors, creators, and knowledge workers are constantly bombarded with updates. And yet, despite being more connected than ever, we’re still falling behind.

We asked ourselves: If content is everywhere, why is it still so hard to stay ahead?

Because most platforms are built for passive consumption — not active understanding.

We scroll, we skim, we save tabs for later… and never come back. Feeds are optimized for clicks, not clarity. We lose hours chasing threads and jumping between sources, only to realize we’ve missed the bigger picture.

A few stats to paint the picture:

  • The average professional spends 2+ hours per day consuming online content.
  • Over 70% of tech workers say they feel overwhelmed by the volume of information they’re expected to keep up with.
  • And yet, less than 15% of what we read online is actually remembered or applied.

In fast-moving industries, missing key information isn’t just annoying, it’s expensive. We’ve spoken to founders who missed trends that cost them time, money, and momentum.

This isn’t just a productivity problem. It’s a learning problem.

Trendly is built for the people who need to move fast and make smart decisions, not scroll endlessly.

  • Founders & builders trying to stay ahead of the curve
  • Investors & analysts scanning for signals in the noise
  • Content creators turning insights into value
  • And anyone else who wants to learn, not just consume

If you’re tired of saving links you never open, threads that go nowhere, and content that doesn’t respect your time, this is for you.

Trendly is a personalized content app that transforms passive content into smart, interactive learning.

It’s built on a simple but powerful framework: The 3Rs.

Recency

Always fresh. You get real-time updates as things unfold, whether it’s a product launch, a market move, or a viral insight. No more digging through old links.

Relevance

Trendly learn what you care about. Every interaction trains your feed, so you see less noise and more signals. Whether you’re into AI tools or global markets, Trendly adapts.

Reliability

Forget misinformation and clickbait. We use AI-powered fact-checking and cross-source validation to make sure what you read is actually useful, not just viral.

Each feature in Trendly is designed with one goal: make your time online feel valuable again.

Summaries

Get the gist in seconds. Trendly turns long reads, posts, and even videos into quick, digestible takeaways — so you stay informed without the scroll.

Follow-ups

Don’t just read, ask. Tap to chat with any article or video. Get more context, clarify details, or dive deeper without leaving the feed.

Translation & Dubbing

Break language barriers. Instantly translate or listen to content in your language, whether it’s from Tokyo, Berlin, or São Paulo.

Team Chat & Notes

Built for curious minds and fast teams. Share links, ask questions, or drop notes, all in one space, without the chaos of multiple apps.

#GetLatest

Cut through the noise. Always know what’s new in your space. Type a topic, hit #getlatest, and see what the internet is saying, in real time.

Ask Anything (Web Search)

Curious about something? Ask it. Trendly pulls live insights from across the web and breaks it down, no extra tabs needed.

Unlike Twitter, Feedly, or newsletters, we’re not just another content aggregator. Our competitors focus on exposure, Trendly focuses on engagement. You don’t just see content. You interact with it. Learn from it. And over time, your feed becomes smarter because of you.

We’re not building a feed. We’re building a thinking tool.

We’re starting with founders and investors, but our vision is bigger. Over time, Trendly can become the go-to learning layer for everyone on the internet.

Think YouTube - but for thinking.

Right now, we’re opening access to our waitlist. We’re not looking for everyone, just the ones who want to get sharper every day. If that’s you, join the waitlist.

We’re not here to add more noise. We’re here to help you cut through it.

Trendly is how content should work in 2025, fast, smart, and built for people who want to learn, not just scroll.
