Personalized News Briefing

A Personalized AI Briefing — How It Actually Works

Two kinds of personalized: automatic (a system remembers your topics and pushes updates on a schedule — not built) and manual (you name your topics in the question and get a sourced answer back instantly — live today in @vustSearchBot). This page shows exactly how the manual version works, and votes for the automatic one.

Honest scope

Manual personalization works today — stored personalization doesn't

Naming your own topics in a question to @vustSearchBot already returns a sourced, scoped answer — that's real personalization, just not automatic. What's missing is memory: nothing saves your topic list between sessions, and nothing runs on a schedule without you asking. The waitlist vote below is for that stored, automatic version specifically.

The manual-personalization flow described here (write your topics into the query, pick a tier) is exactly how @vustSearchBot works today — verified against the running product.

See the difference

The hypothetical automatic flow, the manual flow that works today, and the honest gap.

How an automatic personalized briefing would work

The hypothetical flow

Set your topics once — 'AI funding, semiconductors, my home city' — and a system remembers that list, checks it on a schedule, and sends you only what's relevant, ideally improving as it learns what you actually read.

What that needs, precisely

A stored preference profile per user, a background job that runs without a message from you, and some logic that filters relevance over time. None of that currently exists for SearchBot — this is a description of the feature, not a claim it's live.

How to get a personalized read today, manually

What you actually do

Open @vustSearchBot and write your own topic list into the question: 'What's new today in AI funding, semiconductors, and my home city?' Pick Standard (1✦) for a fast pass or Deep/Research (2✦) if you want a multi-source synthesis on a harder combination of topics.

What you get back

A synthesized answer covering exactly the topics you named, with numbered source citations you can click through — genuinely personalized, because you wrote the personalization into the prompt yourself, on demand.

The honest gap between the two

What's missing

Memory and a schedule. Every time you want your briefing, you retype your topic list — nothing is saved between chats, and nothing arrives unless you open Telegram and ask.

What the waitlist is for

Voting for the stored-topics, scheduled version — built on the same sourced-search engine, not a separate product. Press the button below if remembering your topics for you is the part you actually want.

02·Practical use cases

Who benefits from a personalized briefing

Multi-topic trackers

Follow several unrelated beats at once (say, funding news, a technical field, and local news)

One question naming all three topics returns one sourced answer scoped to exactly that combination — real personalization, written by you.

Occasional checkers

Don't want a permanent subscription, just a personalized pass when they think to ask

No signup or saved profile needed — just ask with your topics included, any time, and get a scoped answer back.

Future automatic-briefing voters

Want the topic list remembered so they stop retyping it

The waitlist vote is exactly this ask — a stored profile and a schedule, built on the search engine that already personalizes manually.

03·How it works

Manual personalization, step by step

01Name your topics in the question

Write your specific interests directly into the prompt to @vustSearchBot — the personalization comes from your own wording, not a stored setting.

02Pick a depth tier

Standard (1✦) for a fast pass on a couple of topics; Deep/Research (2✦) when combining several unrelated topics for a fuller synthesis.

03Get a scoped, sourced answer

The reply covers exactly the topics you named, each claim traceable to a clickable citation — genuinely personalized, just not remembered for next time.
