Philadelphia Inquirer launches Scrape AI tool for hyperlocal news

Original: The Philadelphia Inquirer built Scrape, an AI tool to surface hyperlocal news

The Philadelphia Inquirer has built Scrape, an artificial intelligence tool designed to surface hyperlocal news stories that might otherwise go unreported. Developed with support from the Lenfest Institute, the tool aims to help the newsroom identify and cover neighbourhood-level events across the Philadelphia area. The project is drawing attention as an example of how local news organisations are using AI to expand coverage rather than cut costs.

Why now: News industry observers are interested in practical examples of AI helping local journalism expand coverage.
