Stop the scavenger hunt
Today's city communication is scattered across too many places. Residents never know where the latest truth lives.
The Old Way
- City website
- Facebook posts
- Instagram stories
- Email alerts
- Text notifications
- Printed newsletters
- Door hangers
- Department pages
- Word-of-mouth
= Confusion, contradictions, and missed updates
The Peny Way
One channel for everything
Official city updates, events, and information—all in one place
No more guessing
You always know where to find the latest truth
Less confusion
Fewer contradictions, fewer missed updates
Social media is a bad system for public information
Social platforms are noisy, algorithm-driven, and not designed to be a reliable public record.
Tiny organic reach
A typical city post might reach only about 1–2% of followers organically.
To reach more people, many pages end up paying to boost posts.
Built to keep you scrolling
On social media, your feed is built to keep you scrolling, not to make sure you see city information.
Not a reliable public record
Important updates get buried in the feed. Finding something from last week? Good luck.
Built for residents, designed for trust
Peny gives you what matters most: reliable information when you need it.
Official & Verified
Every answer comes from your city's official sources. You can see where the information came from and verify it yourself.
Better Use of Your Tax Dollars
When city staff spend less time reposting the same info everywhere, they have more time for faster responses and better service.
Reliable Emergency Communication
In an emergency, fragmented channels fail. One official hub makes it easier to find the latest instructions fast.
Purpose-Built for City Info
No more guessing where to look. When you need city information, you know exactly where to go. If it's city-related, it's in one place.
Follow Multiple Cities
Live in one city, work in another? Have family elsewhere? Track updates from any city that matters to you.
Equal Access for Everyone
One place helps everyone—including residents who don't use Facebook, don't follow city accounts, or are tired of platform noise.
