The challenge

What holds a newsroom back, and how we answer it

01

Good reporting, invisible in search

The story is published and the national outlet's rewrite outranks it by lunchtime, because nobody had time for the headline, the metadata or the links.

James and Alex handle the search presence of every story, from headline alternatives to indexing and speed, so your original stays on top.

02

Every story needs five posts

Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, each with its own framing, and the reporter has the next story to file.

Marcus plans the distribution and Maya drafts the posts for each channel the moment a story publishes, all waiting for an editor's yes.

03

Readers you cannot reach, advertisers you cannot find

The audience arrives from a platform and leaves the same way; the local businesses who would advertise never see a rate card.

The newsletter sign-up puts every reader in Clients, your advertising services sit in the catalogue with an Enquire button, and Sarah drafts the reply to every advertiser within about a minute.

Questions from news and media

Something specific to your business? Write to us and a person answers.

Does the AI write the news?

No. Your reporters write the stories. The team handles headline alternatives, search presence, distribution posts and audience, and an editor approves every one.

Can we send the newsletter from here?

The sign-up puts every reader in Clients with their consent recorded; you send the newsletter from the tool you use today. Nothing connects between them.

Can we sell advertising?

Your advertising services sit in the catalogue with an Enquire button; the enquiry lands in Clients and Sarah drafts the reply. Billing and ad serving stay with you.

Will posts go out on their own?

No. Every post waits for an editor's approval.

Several titles?

Growth runs three websites and businesses and Pro runs ten, each with its own masthead and feed.
