The Syllabus

The good content is already here; it’s just not evenly distributed
Comme #Seenthis en plus grand ?
C’est un projet de Evgeny Morozov et c’est payant.
We are a non-profit knowledge curation platform committed to defending and strengthening a well-informed public sphere. To do that, we strive to unearth, disseminate, and highlight high-quality information – without deepening public dependence on opaque algorithmic solutions pushed by Big Tech. We do so both by offering individual subscribers a “clean” feed of high-quality content – and by working with institutions (think-tanks, foundations, media, companies) who have their own bespoke information needs.
How We Do It
Artisanal automation? Yes, that’s us. Curation done right. With humans and machines. Every day, we find hundreds of intellectual gems. The gems that vanish in social media noise. We vet them. Carefully. And you only get to see the best. No noise, no distraction, no clickbait. Only the serious stuff you miss.
1.
Monitor
We start by tracking our sources. Thousands of them. Some famous. Others obscure. All of them fascinating. And we keep adding new ones. Across 60 topics. Climate and AI. Literature and populism. Migration and cities. In depth. You won’t be bored.
2.
Review
Our curators step in here. They examine everything. Thoroughly. To find refreshing voices. Voices that go against the grain. On topics that matter. Topics that everyone should be talking about. And certainly will be. For years. But you read it here first.
3.
Curate
That’s where we make your syllabus. Yes, yours. Finetune it as you want. Topics, media types, languages. You can tweak it all. Plus, our curators make editions of their own. So that you can stop wasting time on Twitter. Everything you need is here.
“The Syllabus turned up material I just never would have come across otherwise...
It’s bloody magic.”

“Having limited time to read means that The Syllabus is a life-saver in seeking information, keeping up on societal creativity and finding research and analysis to base future policy on.”
Li Andersson
MEP and Chair of the European Parliament’s Committee on Employment and Social Affairs
“I don’t know how I’ve lived so long without this service. The Syllabus is a fantastic resource, delivering an embarrassment of intellectual riches.”
