Client: Flightmode
Deliverable: iOS App, Admin Dashboard, Algorithm
Status: In Progress

Flightmode is an app that provides a calm environment for you to read quality journalism. It recreates that old newspaper feeling digitally. It gives you 3 daily articles curated by intelligent people. The intention is for these articles to trigger reflection. No constant updates, no endless scrolling, no noise. You can think of Flightmode as a tool that helps you create healthier, more enjoyable habits around media. A tool that lets you trade quick news updates for slower reflection.
More on the philosophy of the app can be read here.

I am working closely with the founders of the startup for public release of Flightmode V1.
