A New Way To Produce News

We write thousands of important stories that, without us, would never see the light of day.

Led by skilled journalists, crafting stories and harnessing automation to mass localise.

We use open data to generate high volumes of compelling, exclusive and verifiable stories.

A service of high quality content at scale, to meet the specific needs of newsrooms (media and brands)

We also build bespoke city news sites that create real editorial intelligence and engage millennial audiences - see our proof of concept site urbs.london
