OurWeek

Your town, in one quick read

For towns · counties · neighborhoods

Your town has stories. Be the one to tell them.

Local newspapers keep going quiet, but the news never stopped. OurWeek gives one neighbor everything a weekly needs — and the community writes it with you.

213 U.S. counties have no local news outlet at all. Is yours one of them?

“Be the One” — 90 seconds on what a publisher does here.

Your community writes it with you

Neighbors submit news, photos, and events — the coach posts the score, pictures and all. Local feeds gather the rest: scores, meetings, memorials, already written. You approve with a tap and choose what leads.

One morning a week, everywhere

Your edition lands in every inbox, posts itself to your community's social page, and prints as a single page — with a QR code — for the diner counter.

A real local business from week one

Sponsors and boosted posts are built in, with real checkout and a revenue page. Publishers keep 75¢ of every sponsor dollar.

You're not alone

Delivery, sign-ups, moderation queue, print, and billing are the platform's job. Knowing your community is yours.

See it live

This isn't a mockup

Our pilot has been publishing weekly in Grant County, Indiana — inbox, social page, and print at the counter.

Bring OurWeek to your community

Tell us where you are. If you're the one who already knows everything going on — the group admin, the connector, the neighbor people ask — you're exactly who this is built for.

  • “I'm not a writer.” Most of the edition arrives written. Your skill is knowing the community, not prose.
  • “I don't have time.” It's weekly by design — a sit-down-once ritual, not a treadmill.
  • “My town already has a Facebook group.” So did every town that lost its paper. This is the group's greatest hits, once a week, in every inbox — with your name on it.
