Key Features

Studio Dashboard Get a bird's-eye view of your production pipeline. The dashboard displays active stories, drafts, items in review, and published counts. KPI cards show utilization rates, helping you allocate resources effectively.

Visual Timeline Plan your week or month with an intuitive timeline view. Color-coded blocks represent story stages—draft, in-progress, review, done—making it easy to spot bottlenecks and adjust schedules.

Asset Management Store and organize all your media assets—images, videos, audio, documents—in a centralized library. Smart tagging and powerful search let you find assets instantly. Version control ensures you never lose track of changes.

Briefs Module Assign story briefs to team members with clear instructions, deadlines, and required resources. Keep everyone aligned from the start.

Pipeline View A Kanban-style board that visualizes your workflow. Drag and drop stories between columns (Draft, In Progress, Review, Done) to track progress and identify blockers.

Quality Control Built-in style guide checks, fact-checking integration, and collaborative review tools help ensure accuracy and consistency. Version history lets you revert changes if needed.

Multi-Format Export Export stories as HTML, PDF, JSON, XML, or directly publish to popular CMS platforms. Customizable templates ensure brand consistency across all outputs.
