Build the tools newsrooms tell stories with

Timepath makes ten interactive story formats, from liveblogs to quizzes, that newsrooms embed in their journalism. We're a small team in Amsterdam. And we're hiring.

What you'd be building

Journalists build a story in our editor. Readers meet it inside an article on the newsroom's own site, embedded by iframe or script, in the newsroom's language, light or dark.

Inside every editor: AI Modules, Templates, Analytics, Member management and Automation.

Who publishes with Timepath

National and regional news sites, broadcasters and magazines in the Netherlands, Belgium and across Europe.

How we work

  • Dutch first

    Most of our newsrooms work in Dutch, and so does much of the editor. Choosing the right word is product work here.

  • Your work goes live

    Our embeds run inside newsroom articles while the news is happening. A broken embed is a broken article, so we test before we ship.

  • A small team

    No layers between you and the CTO. You ask directly, and you hear back the same day.

  • Reviewed before it ships

    You open a pull request on GitHub, and Colin or Maarten reviews it before it goes live.

  • AI in the workflow

    We write code with AI coding tools every day. In the product, journalists choose which model and which prompt the AI Modules use.

  • Built in the EU

    Built and hosted in the European Union. Newsroom and reader data stays in the EU.

Who you'd work with

The development & engineering team is three people today. The rest of the team works on design, growth and security.
