Description
News shouldn't be an endless doomscroll. On RocaNews, we give you just the news you need to know so you can get informed and then go touch grass.
UNBIASED AND INFORMATIVE
• Roca gives you unbiased, daily news, history, and games that make staying informed actually fun
• Unbiased and nonpartisan: We give you just facts, so you can form your own opinions
• Completable and once-daily: We won’t bombard you with endless notifications that the sky is falling or "breaking" news. We drop one set of stories per day so you can stay informed and then get on with your day
• It’s fun: Built by young people who love video games but hate(d) reading the news
• It works: Our engaging stories, quizzes, polls, and game design help you actually remember the information you learn
• Roca Nation: 3M+ readers trust Roca to give them the news they need to know each day, without spin or bias
NEED-TO-KNOWS

WE AREN’T THEM
Big News makes staying informed a chore. They spout out divisive, endless, fear-mongering – and boring content. Roca delivers a fun and learning-based approach so you can be happier, healthier, and more informed.
SPEND LESS TIME ON YOUR PHONE AND LOWER YOUR STRESS
Other news companies send constant, fear-mongering notifications about so-called "breaking" news. We don’t do breaking news or endless scrolls. We publish once per day so you can get up to speed and then go touch grass
WHERE DID ROCANEWS COME FROM?
• 3 years ago, 3 friends couldn’t stand legacy media companies. They wanted their information without spin or fear – so they founded RocaNews
• Roca began delivering original news content on Instagram. It quickly grew to over 1 million followers and has since become the world’s fastest growing news company, with 3M+ daily readers across platforms
WHAT’S A ROCA?
“Roca” (ROW-cuh) is short for “Pororoca”, a biannual wave that sweeps the Amazon River. Surfers come from across the world to surf the Pororoca; it’s a wave that brings people together. That’s Roca’s mission with the news.
