The Oklahoma Crier wasn’t built in a Silicon Valley boardroom, and it isn’t funded by coastal hedge funds.
It is 100% built, hosted, and funded in Oklahoma.
This platform was created by a single Oklahoman with a simple frustration: it is becoming harder to find clear, grounded information about our own state.
We are flooded with national outrage and short on local facts.
The goal was simple: aggregate reporting from all 77 counties — metro, rural, tribal, and watchdog outlets — into one place that reflects reality as it exists on the ground.
Most algorithms are designed to maximize engagement. This one is designed to maximize context.
By pulling from every corner of the state, the Crier aims to provide a more complete picture — without telling you what to think.
The Oklahoma Crier is an early-stage, self-funded project.
Infrastructure, development, and data processing are paid for out-of-pocket. There is no corporate backing and no safety net.
Expect rough edges. Expect iteration. Expect improvement.
Built locally. Funded locally. Improved together.
