Top comment
Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Brice, founder of The Refract. I built The Refract around a question: what am I missing when I only read the news through one country's media? The same world event can be framed very differently across borders. Comparing that coverage usually means finding foreign sources, navigating languages, and piecing together the context yourself. The Refract brings those perspectives together. You can start with the facts, explore how media in different countries cover the story, and see where their narratives agree, diverge, or leave something out. The aim is to make those differences visible so you can form your own view Try a story you're already familiar with: did another country's coverage change how you understood it ? I'd love to hear which comparisons you find useful and what would make you come back.
