Please read: We use automated OCR and AI to extract, format and summarise these published documents so they are easier to make sense of. This can introduce errors. If you cite or report anything from this site, you must cross-reference it against the original source document — linked from every item — before relying on it.

Public-interest documents, opened up.

When governments and institutions release large troves of documents, the story is often buried in hundreds of scanned pages. NewMedia turns those releases into something you can actually read, search and verify — with every item linked straight to its official source.

How we work

Primary sources, no spin

Everything links to the original. Each document opens at its exact page in the official source PDF — read it yourself.
We add structure, not opinion. Search, timelines and who's-who; no editorial line.
We're honest about method. Scanned pages are read by automated OCR and some summaries are auto-generated — clearly flagged, and never a substitute for the source.
Redactions are respected. We never attempt to reconstruct withheld text.
Independent. Not affiliated with any government, party, or person named in the documents.
