Its core features: AI News Briefs: Generates game recaps from scores; Auto-Publishing: Posts to CMS via API/RSS; ScoreStream Integration: Pulls real-time sports data; WerdNerd Tool: Covers real estate, crime, marriages; Customization: Aligns briefs with newsroom style. Praised for scale (265k users in test market, https://ledeai.com/), it was featured on Product Hunt (2023, https://www.producthunt.com/).
