Current as of October 2026

[informed.now](https://informed.now/) runs on a meritocracy of ideas: Best ideas win, whoever brings them. That only works when everyone can bring them. So everyone is welcome here, wherever you come from, whatever you believe, whoever you love, and whichever cultures you identify with.

## Meritocracy of Ideas

We judge ideas and the work behind them. We don't judge anyone by their background, beliefs, sexuality, or cultural sense of identity. Our job is to find the news that impacts the most lives, and people with different lives notice different things. The more perspectives on our team, the more bright ideas we get to choose from.

## Team Diversity

Recruitment at [informed.now](https://informed.now/) is open to applicants of all backgrounds all year long. We attract outstanding talent from across the world to accelerate our [mission](https://informed.now/mission). If the role you want is not listed, pitch us the one you'd create on our [careers](https://informed.now/careers) page. You don't need a particular background to apply, and you don't need to hide any part of who you are to work here. Bring your ideas and the drive to cultivate them.

Once you're here, your ideas get the same hearing as anyone else's. We experiment, learn, and iterate until we find the best solutions, and we don't care whose idea it was. We challenge ideas hard. But who you are is never up for debate.

## Reader Diversity

The news we text you earns its place the same way. We pick each story by its impact: How much it changes the lives of how many people. Where people may read the same facts differently, we show the contrasting evidence with attribution and leave the conclusion to you. Our [methodology](https://informed.now/methodology) explains how we pick.

We write for readers of every background, belief, and identity across the US and Canada. Our core service is free and our [Pro](https://informed.now/pro) plan is affordable, so cost never decides who gets the power of facts.
