The News Movement is restructuring under a new holding company called Caliber and launching a creator-centric news app called SaySo, according to chief executive and co-founder Ramin Beheshti—moves the publisher intends to reflect its broadened ambitions and position the business for its next chapter of growth.
Founded in 2022, the startup embraced a socially native model from its inception, creating vertical video content designed to live almost exclusively on social platforms and underemphasizing its home website.
Following its launch, it acquired the political outlet The Recount, launched the lifestyle newsletter Capsule, and expanded its creative studio, now called the Caliber Collective.
Now, the company is preparing to unveil a new proprietary platform, called SaySo, which will let vetted news influencers create, share, and monetize their content on the platform. The app will launch in beta this year and roll out broadly in 2026, according to Beheshti.
