What is Wire?
It's a platform for newsrooms to exchange stories with each other. Print publications use it to fill news holes. Nonprofit newsrooms use it to track their impact. News collaboratives use it to save time and money. And it all works with the CMS you already have.
Integrate your CMS
- Connect your existing RSS feeds, so uploading stories is as easy as picking them from a list.
- Pull stories from Wire straight into your CMS.
- Get every story with the formatting, bylines, and photos already attached.
- Download photos with full IPTC metadata that are ready for republication
Start and scale a collaborative
- Share stories across your collaborative, up to hundreds per day.
- Search the shared pool to fill news holes on deadline.
Established collaboratives track thousands of shared stories and republications per year.
Share stories and photos
- Host a shared database of stories and photos for member outlets.
- Create a stock photo library that is purpose-built for your members.
- Enable members to share routine coverage with each other at scale, avoiding expensive wire service fees.
Track and improve your impact
- Share your reporting widely and show funders the reach it earns.
- See which outlets ran your story and how it performed.
- Set permissions on who can share what.
