Beautiful and humane editorial tools
We are a creative technology startup solving problems to do with digital content production and publishing.
Contentment
Better content production
The iPad has revolutionised the market for ebooks and digital magazines, promising a better user experience for readers, as well as new revenue for publishers.
But many publishers are finding it difficult and time consuming to prepare content for mobile delivery, at least not without hiring an army of coders. We aim to fix that.

Customers NOTION launches

Event Byte The Book
We’re happy to be sponsoring Byte the Book at the Ivy in London, on Mon 20 May. This time round the panel will be discussing “How is Technology Influencing The Size and Shape of What We Read?” Good topic: we believe publishers and writers have barely started to scratch the surface on new forms of digital storytelling.
