About Us

Built With and For Local News

Since 2020, we've partnered with the Granite State News Collaborative, one of the oldest and most productive news collaboratives in the country.

Drawing on our combined expertise in journalism, software, and academic research, we build powerful and intuitive tools using battle-tested technology.

Our goal is to help under-resourced newsrooms get access to the tools they need, so that even the smallest local outlets can thrive.

Coming Soon

In Development

We're now working directly with collaboratives across the country to build the next generation of tools, which will be rolled out in early 2026. Want early access? We'd love to hear from you.
