The best way to read news on your phone

What we’re here for

More and more people are relying on their phones as their primary source of news, yet the content is presented in ways that make it annoying to read.

Rather than shoehorning existing content into a new environment, Circa is creating the first born-on-mobile news experience, delivering it in a format native to mobile devices, with an experience intuitive to mobile users.

Through comprehensive yet concise news updates paired with a clean, simple mobile experience, Circa redefines how news is produced, delivered, and consumed.

Circa is news, re-imagined.

The team

Meet the people who built the place, keep the lights on, and keep eating all the candy.
