The regional and local media landscape is becoming increasingly polarised, fuelled by malicious actors and a steeply declining amount of trustworthy information. BeatSquares helps local journalists cut through the noise of misinformation by delivering each of their investigations to multiple audiences. To name but a few: Tik Tok teens, young professionals listening to podcasts and radioshows or senior citizens reading the good old newspaper. BeatSquares turns the hard work of journalists into an instant multimedia outlet. All of this is powered by cutting-edge AI agents, carefully crafted to meet the high standards of journalistic stories. BeatSquares makes publishers' wellresearched information accessible to everyone, renewing the connection between trusted news sources and an under-informed audience. Our goal is to transform news deserts to no-go areas for populists, beating fake news townsquare by townsquare.
