Circle News
Local Newspaper reimagined for mobile
We are solving the need for locally relevant news and information, of Indian vernacular internet users (users who prefer to use the internet in Indian languages). Currently, the way in which hyperlocal news is produced and distributed is completely optimised for Print media, resulting in a very bad UX for users, pretty large TAT for news and unavailability of multimedia content. Most of the problems in the hyperlocal news production cycle can be solved by building the right mobile products and technology for the processes involved, making the value chain more efficient and real time. Over the next few years, we will be building some great products and tech for the ground reporters, editors, news content creators and vernacular news consumers.
Circle News was started by three IIT Kanpur alumni and we have a strong team of people from premier institutes who have worked in the past with startups and companies like ShareChat, Grabhouse, Accenture, Samsung Research, Myntra/Jabong, Outlook India, OLA, City Group etc. We are series A -funded from the top VC’s of the Indian startup ecosystem.
We launched the product in August’18 and so far have seen amazing growth & engagement (6 lakh downloads). We are already live in all the geographies of UP, Rajasthan, and Kerala.
