About 1440

1440 is a community for the knowledge-obsessed that helps curious people stay informed and inspired on a daily basis.

We live in an age of limitless information but limited understanding.

Algorithms decide what we see. Misinformation spreads faster than truth. And the tools meant to expand knowledge now distort it.

Enter 1440

A knowledge collective built on curiosity, connection, and care for the truth. Here, facts matter, thinking is valued, and people come together to understand the world.

We believe curiosity is more than a trait—it's a muscle. Exercised daily, it sharpens the mind, fuels discovery, and drives lifelong growth. That's why we deliver knowledge curated by real humans, for a community of insatiably curious minds, just like yours.

The next great knowledge revolution won't come from more noise, but from a movement of people hungry for better. Curious to join us?

Our Mission

To build a knowledge collective where curiosity thrives and learning never stops.

We champion learning as a vital, daily practice.

Whether it's asking better questions, exploring unfamiliar ideas, or following a thread just to see where it leads, we encourage actions that keep the mind active and engaged.

We fuel a cult of curiosity.

Curiosity is contagious, and we want to spread it. That's why we're not just building a product, but a community where curious minds can connect, share discoveries, and explore ideas together.

We flood the world with wonder.

Wonder turns facts into fascination and information into imagination. We highlight stories, questions, and ideas that invite people to follow their curiosity down the rabbit hole.

We ride for the generalists.

In an age of specialization, generalists have the edge. They connect unexpected dots, ask better questions, and see patterns others miss. 1440 fuels their desire for breadth and depth, strengthening their ability to pursue knowledge across disciplines.

We break the bottlenecks to knowledge.

Today's knowledge ecosystem is broken. Misinformation, bias, and noise make it harder than ever to know the truth. At 1440, fact-checkers verify every word on our platform, and we're actively designing tools and technology to make learning easier and the truth more accessible.

Our Editorial & Partner Standards

Clarity and integrity aren't optional. They're the backbone of every story we tell and every brand we partner with.

Consequential information only.

We don't waste your time with speculative or opinion-based stories—1440 only shares information that impacts people, places, and communities.

Facts and action. Not just words.

We never cover stories built on cherry-picked quotes or speculation about a person's motives. Only verified facts and impactful action.

Context. Not interpretation.

Not a newsflash: Our readers are smart. We provide the tools and links to dig deeper and publish the details that help you connect the dots.

Alignment with our mission.

We only choose brand partners who share our mission of delivering fact-focused information and uphold shared values.

High quality is a requirement.

Brands in our daily briefing must have an existing customer base with a strong reputation for consistent quality.

No miracle products. No motives.

We rigorously vet all partners. You'll never see ads from political entities, tobacco brands, or any bait-and-switch products.

Our Name

In 1440, the printing press sparked a knowledge revolution. We carry that spirit forward, cutting through the noise and algorithm-driven feeds, to bring fact-driven knowledge to everyone.
