For Press Associations

Give every member more to publish

Press associations use Plucky Works to run their members' own newswire, share photos without licensing fees, and open new revenue streams for their members and themselves. Media groups, university systems, and other networks use the same tools to coordinate work across their outlets.

Plucky Works customized for media groups, collaboratives, universities, and press associations

Built for networks

A member benefit that's easy to explain.

Every member paper gets a shared newswire for stories and photos that work with whatever CMS or print workflow it already uses.

Close coverage gaps and meet photo needs across the state.

Members share finished stories and photos with each other instead of paying for stock images or leaving pages thin.

Expand revenue opportunities for the association and its members.

Inbox lets businesses and PR teams send press releases and events to member papers across your association, with distribution your members can monetize together.

Support that meets the needs of all newsrooms.

We help with onboarding, training, and setup, so joining is as easy as possible.
