Built in public

What we're building.

An honest look at what's shipping now, what's coming next, and what's on the horizon. Built by a union member, in public, for real locals.

Some products talk about their roadmap behind closed doors. Union Leader Local doesn't. Here's exactly what works today, exactly what's shipping this summer, and exactly what we're planning beyond that. Dates may shift as real-world pilot feedback redirects priorities — the shipping order matters; the calendar month sometimes doesn't.

Have something we should build?

Union Leader Local's roadmap is shaped by the locals using it. If you're piloting the platform and there's a feature your local actually needs — not a nice-to-have, but a thing that would change how your work gets done — email admin@unionleader.ca. The developer reads every message. Real union needs jump the queue.
