The Engine

It doesn't replace journalists. It gives them superpowers.

Our Newsroom Agent changes the math behind local newsrooms. It monitors the web (excluding social media), sifts through the noise, and serves up verified leads.

Working together, journalists can focus on curating impactful stories rather than hunting for them. This allows for an explosion in coverage, making it economically viable for small independent producers to exist again.

Human driven. AI engine under the hood.

The Context

Reversing the drought.

Local news is the backbone of informed communities, yet “news deserts” are spreading globally. In Canada alone, millions live in communities with one or fewer local news sources.

Our goal is to reverse this trend. We are turning these deserts back into thriving ecosystems of information, restoring the shared narratives that hold towns and cities together.
