Background

Hamilton is a news-discovery service within the New York Post Media Group’s newspaper apps. Readers can ask questions in ordinary language, receive customised digests and find related stories. It also offers recommendations and notifications based on their interests. The publisher developed the service with Google Cloud, using Gemini technology to work with Post journalism.

The service appears in The New York Post and California Post apps. Its conversational search returns sourced answers and links to reporting, while its other features help readers follow subjects and commentary. The publisher describes newsroom oversight of the material and says Hamilton does not create original reporting. Its purpose is to change how readers find and use the publisher’s existing work.
