Upstract is a news aggregation platform that brings headlines and trending content from across the internet together on a single page. Formerly known as Popurls, it describes itself as the “mother of news aggregators” and says it has been operating since 2002. Its grid-style homepage organizes material from a wide range of sources, making it possible to scan current events, popular discussions, and media trends in one place.

The site features content from established news organizations such as Reuters, AP, The New York Times, CNN, The Guardian, and The Washington Post, alongside platforms including Reddit, YouTube, Tumblr, Imgur, and X. Coverage spans politics, world affairs, business, science, entertainment, sports, and culture, with sections highlighting trending stories and posts. Users can search and adjust settings, switch between light and dark modes, and customize the news grid. Upstract also promotes a Pro membership. By consolidating links and headlines from multiple publishers and social platforms, the service offers a convenient overview of what is being discussed online.
