    skim the news: what each outlet is actually saying

    skim covers the news brands you meet every day. The New York Times, BBC, NPR, CNN, Reuters, the Associated Press, Fox News, Bloomberg, WIRED, TechCrunch, Al Jazeera, The Verge, Mashable, Yahoo News, HuffPost, MIT Technology Review, and more than thirty other outlets across politics, business, technology, science, sports, and culture.

    Pick a brand and see what it is actually publishing today, with every article sorted into facts, opinions, and claims, and per-source attribution that surfaces exactly who said what. Compare how multiple outlets cover the same story in a single feed, so you can see where the reporting agrees, where it diverges, and where the framing shifts from one masthead to the next. Each piece carries a credibility read, a named bias direction, and the conflicts of interest worth knowing before you trust it.

    skim turns a wall of text into the whole story in a fraction of the time, with the analysis powered by Google's Gemini. skim is the credibility layer of the internet, built by Credible AI, and it runs as a Chrome extension, a website, a mobile site, and an iOS and Android app suite. Read the news brands you already follow at skim.plus.

    • Traditional firewalls can’t see what’s inside an AI prompt. Check Point built one that can.

      Enterprise adoption of autonomous AI agents has exposed a major network visibility gap that legacy security tools cannot inspect. Check Point and Nightfall AI offer contrasting network-layer and application-layer inspection solutions to govern agent prompts and prevent data leakage.

      1. 1. Almost half of organizations lack visibility into machine-to-machine traffic generated by AI agents.
      1. 2. Check Point integrated prompt-level AI inspection into its existing firewall infrastructure.
      1. 3. Nightfall AI uses application-level client wrappers rather than network infrastructure to inspect AI prompts.
