Built with local newsrooms in mind.

Plucky Works makes practical software for scrappy newsrooms of every size. Our tools help publishers work more effectively with community members, businesses, freelancers, and other news organizations without replacing the systems they already use.

The company grew out of our work with the Granite State News Collaborative in New Hampshire. When its member newsrooms needed a better way to share reporting, we worked alongside editors to replace a complicated process built around email and thousands of Google Drive folders. That project became Plucky Wire.

The lessons from that experience still shape everything we build. We start with real newsroom workflows, keep setup manageable, and focus on tools that save time, support more original reporting, or open practical revenue opportunities. Today, we are applying that approach to community submissions, calendars, assignments, and story sharing for newsrooms across the country.
