Emergency Alerts: Fast, Targeted, Real-Time Notifications
When emergencies strike, speed and accuracy matter. Peny ensures residents receive instant, location-specific alerts—without delays or government red tape. Unlike traditional SMS alerts or outdated Amber Alert systems, which can be slow, overly broad, and irrelevant to a resident’s exact location, Peny:
✅ Delivers real-time alerts – push notifications ensure immediate visibility, with no delays.
✅ Includes photos, videos, and live updates – giving residents clear, visual information instead of plain text.
✅ Targets specific neighborhoods – only alerts those affected, reducing unnecessary panic and alert fatigue.
✅ Cuts through bureaucracy – no hoops to jump through, just fast, direct notifications from local governments.
No extra SMS costs. No outdated systems. Just clear, effective emergency communication when it matters most.
Events: A Central Hub for All Local Happenings
Residents shouldn’t have to search multiple websites, scroll through social media, or rely on word of mouth to stay informed about local events. Peny’s Events feature brings everything together in one place—from festivals and farmers markets to public meetings and volunteer opportunities.
✅ Local government-approved listings – ensuring accuracy and relevance.
✅ Event reminders & search filters – making it easy for residents to discover what’s happening.
✅ Direct engagement – allowing residents to plan, participate, and share events with others.
With one centralized hub for events, Peny makes it easier for local governments to connect with their communities and boost engagement.
Feed: A Social-Media-Free Way to Keep Residents Informed
Cut through the noise of social media. Peny’s Feed is a direct, reliable connection between local governments and residents—ensuring that important updates are seen, not buried by “social media algorithms.” Unlike traditional social platforms, where you only see what the platform wants you to see or what’s most popular, Peny:
✅ Gives local governments control – only official civic accounts can post, eliminating misinformation.
✅ Prioritizes important updates – no competing with viral trends or irrelevant content.
✅ Makes sharing easy – residents can quickly pass along updates to family & friends.
Whether it’s a routine notice or a critical alert, Peny ensures your residents stay informed—without the distractions of social media.
Content Moderation & Approval: Ensuring Accuracy & Trust
Local governments need to communicate quickly without sacrificing accuracy and credibility. Peny’s flexible approval workflows give officials full control over public content, ensuring that only trusted, official, and timely information reaches residents.
✅ Customizable approval settings – City staff can publish instantly or require internal approval before posts go live.
✅ Resident-submitted event reviews – All community events follow local government guidelines before being posted.
✅ Editable, reviewable content – Updates to published content can be reviewed and approved before changes go public.
With these safeguards, Peny helps local governments maintain trust and transparency—without unnecessary bottlenecks.
