How Can AI Help Publishers?

The Short Answer

In magazine and trade publishing, AI primarily assists in the advertising business: answering inquiries, creating offers from media data, assigning print materials from the inbox to the correct ad, and keeping the schedule for each issue up-to-date. The publisher is responsible for editorial content and the labeling of advertising.

Sell Ads Instead of Managing Them

Media data is often in spreadsheets, documents in the inbox, and scheduling is done mentally. When media data is in the system, offers with format, issue, and price can be generated in minutes, even for agencies with commissions.

Print Materials and Scheduling

For every issue:

  • Assign print materials via an upload link or directly from the ad's inbox.
  • Request missing documents in a timely manner.
  • Ad schedule per issue as a PDF for the printing house.
  • Label advertorials and deliver required copies.

Reader Subscriptions for Paid Newsletters

In addition to ads, paid newsletters and reader subscriptions are becoming more important. Subscriptions, payments, and distribution can be managed on the same platform.
