About Pressly

News trend fast,
we deliver them faster.

Pressly turns any article into a 30-second video brief.
Ready in "seconds" before you’d have finished the headline.
We built it because staying informed shouldn’t cost you your afternoon.

Why we built this

There has never been more news, and never less time to read it. The moment the internet started to undercut the news & publication industry's distribution and revenue stream, news publishers and writers had to move into the digital space, but with no innovative or adaptive way to adapt to the speed of the internet, while every second this space has been flooded with news & articles ever since. Every open tab is another 8-minute article competing with the ten other things you're supposed to be doing today, and you scroll past headlines you never actually get informed by, and the only one who loses is you

We didn’t think the fix was another feed, narration button, summary , or another app asking for five more minutes of attention. So we built Pressly around a simpler idea: in a world of abundant information and countless news stories to catch up with, you only need a 30-second video-brief to get an idea of what an article said and stay informed, not read the whole thing, and spend your time behind walls of text just to play catch-up.

Everything happens the moment you ask for it: no rendering queue, no waiting time.
We believe that speed is what brought you here, and keeping up with the world at speed will help you adjust accordingly, which will contribute to your professional life and staying ahead of everybody else.

Who we are

Pressly is the first platform to change the way you read on the internet. a startup founded by ( Adnane ) who also believes that removing friction from the reading experience by adapting to the speed of the internet through an innovative approach to the way we consume articles & news, We read more news than is strictly healthy, and we’d rather watch a 30s video-brief than skim an 8-minute article — so we built the tool we wanted for ourselves first, then made it free for everyone else.
I believe that pushing the boundaries of the way this ecosystem is approached (from both parties), will expand the consumption reach and people's capability to keep up with the world at speed, which will contribute to their personal/professional lives and help them stay ahead.
