The Pudding publishes visual essays that argue cultural questions with data — rap vocabularies, laugh tracks, the geometry of jeans pockets. Each story ships as its own bespoke piece of interactive journalism, built by a small studio of journalist-engineers.

Monocle is Tyler Brûlé's magazine of global affairs, business and soft power, published on paper first since 2007 with a radio station on the side. Its website behaves like a broadsheet that happens to load in a browser.
