Livingdocs · Editorial Edition

The editorial CMS for
modern newsrooms.

Livingdocs is not just another CMS, it is built for editorial teams. Real-time collaboration in the same document, AI directly in the editor, multi-channel publishing including print connect. We implement, migrate and operate Livingdocs for news portals, publishers and large editorial teams.

Built for editorial teams, not for marketing teams

Most CMS are generalist. Livingdocs is not. Every feature is designed for the editorial day-to-day, from pitch to publication across all channels, with a team in one office or distributed around the world.

  • 100% headless: your frontend stays completely under your control
  • Real-time co-editing: multiple editors in the same document
  • AI built-in: headlines, summaries and metadata assistance
  • Print and web multi-channel publishing with print connect
