Software for media.
Publishers and media businesses compete for attention on every device. We build fast, search-friendly publishing sites, subscriptions and reader apps, with reporting that shows what readers value.
Where software helps
Four things we build for media companies.
Subscriptions and paywalls
Plans, payments and member-only content.
Reader apps
Content, notifications and offline reading on mobile.
Audience reporting
Traffic and subscription data in one dashboard.
The challenge
Where software makes the biggest difference.
Media businesses depend on reaching readers quickly and keeping them coming back. Slow pages lose visitors from search and social, clumsy subscription flows lose paying members, and editorial teams waste time fighting their tools instead of publishing.
A good publishing platform is fast, easy for editors and built for search from the start. Clean templates, structured data for articles, image handling and sensible URLs help content get found. Subscription plans, member-only content and payment handling turn regular readers into revenue, and reporting that combines traffic with subscriptions shows which content brings value. We build on the CMS that suits your newsroom, from WordPress to a custom system.

Questions
Common questions about software for media.
Will a paywall hurt our search rankings?
Not if it is set up as Google recommends. Paywalled content should be marked with the right structured data so Google can tell it apart from cloaking.
Can editors publish without developer help?
Yes. Templates, layouts and workflows are built so editors can publish, schedule and update stories themselves.
Do you build reader apps as well as websites?
Yes. Android and iOS apps can share content with the website and add notifications and offline reading.
