The data journalism platform with built-in training

Welcome to Workbench! (CJ for computational journalism)

Workbench is a platform that combines data tools and training for journalists. It is a workbook-style data processing system designed around modular tools for data processing -- table in, table out -- with no code required. Features include:

  • Modules to scrape, clean, analyze and visualize data
  • An integrated data journalism training program
  • Connect to Google Drive, Twitter, and API endpoints.
  • Every action is recorded, so all workflows are repeatable and transparent
  • All data is live and versioned, and you can monitor for changes.
  • Write custom modules in Python and add them to the module library

To see what Workbench does, try our public server, now in beta. Or run your own server.
