Give your journalism students a head start

Extensively tested and refined with feedback from journalists, publications and universities worldwide. We offer numerous benefits to journalism schools in relation to student support, alumni relationships and value

“For student journalists who are writing for different publications and on different platforms, it really does have everything they need. I tell everyone it's like if Google docs, Otter, LinkedIn and Twitter had a baby, and that kid was really good at SEO and finding sources and content verification and newsroom management. (I only wish I had this tool when I was their age!)”
