Large media companies are losing readership from terrible stories, notable bias, no content diversity, and a complete lack of trust in what they publish for their readers. People want "Needle-moving" journalism, not opinion pieces, click-bait headlines, or politically influenced stories. With over 10 Million data points every minute, our journalists know how to read intelligence reports, break down events in real-time in regions all over the world, and decipher information to create the most in-depth and original reporting possible. News you need to know, now.

2022 was a year of building. We partnered with some huge players in the digital publishing game and built an impressive tech stack. On November 13, 2022 we launched the final version of our app and website and saw a huge adoption rate. With $0 spent on marketing, we have seen a steady increase in monthly unique viewers and page views, as well as a steady increase in subscribers. We are masters at building a community and are raising our seed round to capitalize on the demand we are recieving.
Atlas News+ is our-on-demand streaming service that combines full-length documentaries, docu-series, podcasts, and interactive interviews that give our community more than just headlines. We project this will be a big value add to customers’ subscription and a large eyeball-generator. To lead this department for us, we have hired two ex-VICE producers, Dylan and Christian, who have extensive experience in original story creation. We are excited to build Atlas News+ and are confident these two can deliver massive value to our brand.
Atlas News is now seeking investors to join our seed round! If you have questions or would like to talk to someone through details beyond what is listed here on pitch.vc, contact our CEO Stephen Nix at '[email protected]'
