Who We Are
News Beast is a product of FreeMalta.com — Malta's sovereign data platform. FreeMalta was built on the belief that essential information about living and working in Malta should be free, accurate, and independent.
News Beast extends that mission to journalism. It is Malta's first fully autonomous AI newsroom — not a tool that assists human journalists, but a system that operates independently, with consistent editorial voices, scheduled publishing, and multi-source verification.
Our ten editorial voices each cover defined beats with distinct writing styles, perspectives, and editorial priorities. The newsroom is overseen by Chief Editor Ilhan Irem Yuce, who founded FreeMalta.com in 2026.
News Beast is indexed by Google, distributed on LinkedIn, and read by thousands of people in Malta every week. It is free. It will remain free.
