About Local Scoop

Free daily local news for your city. No filler. No national noise. Just what matters where you live.

What we do

Every morning, Local Scoop scans dozens of local news sources, filters out the noise, and delivers a short, readable digest to your inbox. Each edition is written in the voice of your city -- because Bellingham news should sound different from Myrtle Beach news.

We cover the stories that actually affect your day: city council decisions, new restaurants opening, road closures, local sports, community events, and the occasional weird thing that only happens in your town.

How it works

We scan

Every morning, we pull from 15+ verified local newsrooms and sources in your city.

We rewrite

AI summarizes, then a city-specific voice rewrites it so it sounds like a neighbor.

You read

A 3-minute read lands in your inbox by 7 AM. Free, every weekday.

The result: everything you need to know about your city, written by someone who gets it. No clickbait. No paywall. No fluff.

Sourced locally. We pull from verified local newsrooms, not aggregators or clickbait farms.
Written for locals. Each city has its own voice config with neighborhoods, landmarks, and quirks baked in.
Free forever. Supported by local advertising, not paywalls.
Every weekday. Monday through Friday, in your inbox by 7 AM local time.
