Personalized news curation
Your news, arranged like a bento box.

Testimonials
Readers who traded feeds for bentos
“Bento replaced forty open tabs and two newsletters. My morning read went from fifty minutes to twelve — and I miss nothing that matters.”
“The curation is uncannily good. It learned I care about climate policy and chip manufacturing, then quietly dropped everything else.”
“I stopped doomscrolling. Bento gives me a finite, well-arranged box of stories, and I close it feeling informed instead of anxious.”

FAQ
Questions, answered
How does Bento curate my news?
Overnight, our models score stories from sources you trust against your interest profile, strip out duplicates and clickbait, and balance the mix across your categories. You wake up to one finite, relevant grid — not an infinite feed.
Can I choose which sources appear?
Yes. Mark outlets as favorites to prioritize them or mute them entirely. Trusted sources can be set per category, so you can follow tech from specialists and world news from wire services.
What happens to my reading data?
Your reading history stays private. It is used only to tune your own curation, never sold, and never used for advertising. You can export or delete it at any time from settings.
Can I change my categories later?
Any time. Add or remove categories, resize tiles and rearrange your grid — the next edition adapts within a few hours, and your likes and hides refine it continuously.
Is the free plan really free? Can I cancel anytime?
The Reader plan is free forever, with no credit card required. Paid plans are month-to-month or yearly, and you can cancel in two clicks — you keep access until the end of your billing period.
