Rayos Platform by TownNews: A turnkey, WordPress-based CMS that's customized and extended to meet the unique needs of broadcasters and magazine/niche publications.
The Rayos Platform from TownNews enables you to easily customize your site to meet your needs.
If you don't have on-staff coders, Rayos-based sites are easy to customize and maintain using the WordPress interface and plugin library you're already familiar with.
And as always, you're backed by TownNews' expert systems, design, and support teams.
Easy content creation using the tools you're familiar with
A cross-platform UI and intuitive editing interface that doesn't get in the way of getting the job done.
The Rayos Platform's mobile-friendly editor makes it a piece of cake to create highly engaging articles, image galleries, and more—using an enhanced version of the WordPress interface your creators favor.
Our visual composer gives you total control over your site’s look and feel. It's easy to adjust the layout of your landing pages, and templatize items that are reused frequently throughout your site.
Looking to expand your coverage? You can augment your original reporting with content from external sources, like CNN and The Associated Press.
Create once, publish everywhere
Rayos produces clean, semantic content that can be reused efficiently across a variety of systems.
Push content to your social media sites, OTT channels, mobile apps, and more.
Our content hub enables you to push and pull content to/from other sites, social media, and third-party platforms.
Flexible, robust video integration
The built-in video support that broadcasters demand.
Searching and selecting videos in TownNews' Field59 VMS.

Your bottom line is our top priority.
