Livingdocs is shaped around the real challenges publishers face with industry-specific features, end-to-end workflow support, and a famously intuitive UX that over 6,000 journalists trust every day.
Livingdocs is designed around the real workflows of publishers. Each module addresses a specific editorial need and together they form a complete publishing platform that grows with your organisation.
Stop wrestling with your CMS. The Livingdocs article editor puts the story front and centre with a component-based, drag-and-drop WYSIWYG experience that editors actually enjoy using. Built-in real-time collaboration, change tracking, and commenting mean your team can work together seamlessly whether they are in the newsroom or on the go. Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile.
Plan your coverage with user needs in mind: our topic planning lets teams map out stories, assign ownership, and set priorities well ahead of publication. Additional tools give teams a shared, real-time view of every story in the pipeline: what's in progress, what needs reviewing, what's ready to publish. Priorities stay clear, bottlenecks disappear, and nothing falls through the cracks. Less chasing. More publishing.
Your editors' time is too valuable for repetitive tasks. The Assistants and Automation module lets you embed intelligent AI tools directly into the editing experience, generating summaries, optimising subheadings, enriching metadata, and more. Configurable and extensible, it is a platform for building the automated workflows your newsroom actually needs.
Great content deserves a great home. Livingdocs page management gives editors full control over how stories are surfaced, with drag-and-drop teaser placement, smart list management, and rules-based automation that can populate pages using tags, departments, and metadata. Build highly curated news products without the operational overhead.
Every image, video, and file your team needs, is organised, searchable and always at hand. The Livingdocs Media Center makes asset management effortless with configurable metadata, automatic caption pre-filling, image editing tools, and batch upload from any device. Less time hunting for assets. More time using them.
Print is not going anywhere, but print workflows should not slow you down. Print Connect bridges your digital and print operations in one place, with copy tools tailored to print workflows, configurable production dashboards, and a clear split-screen view of online vs. print versions. Native integrations with leading print systems (PEIQ, Hermes, EIDOS, Interred) mean your existing infrastructure stays intact.
Wire copy, handled. The News Agency module imports material from all your connected text agencies in real time, making it instantly available to your team in a configurable research interface. Incorporate agency content into your own journalism quickly and cleanly without ever leaving Livingdocs.
Never lose track of licensed imagery again. The Image Agency module pulls in agency images in real time, gives your editors powerful search tools to find the right shot fast, and automatically removes expired or unused material. Clear usage references mean you always know where an image has been published and can withdraw it if needed.
Create and deliver polished digital editions without the complexity. The Digital Edition module provides everything you need to plan, assemble, and distribute finite digital products, with automated and manual creation tools, planning integration and full delivery infrastructure optimised for responsive design across all devices.
Breaking news moves fast. The Ticker module lets your team cover live events like elections, sports and breaking stories with all the power of the Livingdocs editor, built for the speed of live publishing. Stay ahead of the story.
Livingdocs is not just feature-rich. It is designed with a clear philosophy: give editorial teams a platform so intuitive, so complete, and so reliable that they never need to work anywhere else. Here is what that looks like in practice.
Livingdocs is more than software. When you choose our Managed Service, you get a trusted partner who takes care of everything from infrastructure to editorial consulting so your team can focus entirely on publishing.
