Faster editorial processes. On-time publications. Fewer rounds of revisions.
Bring editorial, layout, the picture desk and the editor-in-chief together in one approval tool for faster editorial processes and on-time publications. With structured editorial reviews and fewer rounds of revisions, you meet every deadline.
Do these challenges sound familiar?
Typical problems in editorial teams that draftgo solves
The print deadline is tomorrow – and the approval is still missing
Tight deadlines are put at risk by unclear processes and a lack of overview. Without a central system, approval statuses get lost and delays pile up.
Editorial says OK, but legal still has concerns
Multiple stakeholders with different priorities block each other. Without a clear order of approval stages, you get unnecessary waiting and frustration.
Which revised version did the editor-in-chief see?
Version chaos across several rounds of revisions leads to misunderstandings. Changes get lost when different versions are passed around by email or chat.
Where are the approved images for the article?
Asset chaos across different channels and email threads slows down production. Valuable time is lost when files have to be tracked down in different folders and inboxes.
