Executable Capability Pillars

Three integrated sub-workflows on one Single Title Record

Developmental & Structural Analysis

Diagnose pacing, overlap, and argument structure across chapters

Surface chapter-by-chapter structural maps, terminology drift across multi-author volumes, and argument gaps while keeping every developmental memo and prose revision in human hands.

Copyediting & Style-Sheet Checks

Enforce house style, spelling conventions, and citation integrity

Run automated consistency checks against Chicago Manual of Style 18th Edition, Oxford/Hart's Rules, APA, or custom imprint style sheets, flagging unverified footnotes and endnotes.

Version Control & Sign-Off Gates

Eliminate v12_FINAL_REVISED Word attachment confusion

Maintain clean round-trip DOCX compatibility alongside browser-based tracked redlines, author query threads, and cryptographic sign-off locks prior to typesetting.

No. Editorial Intelligence supports lossless DOCX import and export with full tracked changes and comments so authors comfortable in Word collaborate smoothly.

Never. All style, grammar, and structural diagnostics appear as reviewable suggestions. Human editors and authors explicitly accept or reject every change.

Pre-built rule sets cover Chicago 18th (US), New Hart's / Oxford Rules (UK), APA 7th, MLA 9th, OSCOLA legal citations, and custom house style dictionaries per imprint.

It standardises spelling, heading hierarchies, figure numbering, and bibliography formats across 15 to 40 individual chapter contributors automatically.

Yes. A single toggle on the Title Master disables all AI inference for that manuscript while preserving version control, style checklists, and human approval gates.

Every open author query indexes as a checklist item. The system blocks release to Production Studio until mandatory queries are resolved or signed off.

Yes. Editors tag third-party tables, plates, and epigraphs with clearance status and credit lines that carry directly into the production copyright and caption pages.

Yes. Every editorial round creates an immutable snapshot comparing developmental draft, copyedited master, author review lock, and final proofread text.

All manuscripts are encrypted with AES-256 at rest, transmitted over TLS 1.3, restricted by title-level RBAC, and excluded from external AI training.

Semantically tagged headings, blockquotes, captions, and footnotes flow directly into automated pagination and Adobe InDesign IDML export.

Give your editors sharper consistency tools without surrendering human judgement.

Eliminate conflicting Word drafts, automate style-sheet checks, and hand clean semantic structure straight into typesetting.
