What is Author-it?

If your team is maintaining the same content across multiple documents, reformatting outputs by hand, or sending the same paragraphs back to translators every release cycle - you're paying the hidden cost of unstructured content management. Author-it solves this at the source. It's an enterprise CCMS (Component Content Management System) with over 25 years of proven deployment in industries where accuracy, compliance, and scale aren't negotiable: manufacturing, software and technology, utilities, medical devices, aerospace and defence, financial services, and government. The platform centres on a single Library - a relational content database where Topics (content components) are assembled into Books (deliverables) and published to any format from one source. Update one Topic, and every Book containing it reflects the change. No manual updates. No version drift. No missing the footnote that just changed your liability exposure. Key capabilities include structured authoring without DITA or XML expertise, component-level content reuse (customers regularly hit 60–90% reuse rates), built-in translation workflow with XLIFF export and intelligent change-tracking to reduce translator word counts, multi-stage Review & Approve with compliance audit trails, variant and conditional content for multi-product and multi-market publishing, and output to HTML5, PDF, Word, SCORM, XML, DITA, and AION. AION is Author-it's structured JSON publishing format - designed for direct ingestion by LLMs and RAG pipelines. It mirrors the full content hierarchy: books, sub-books, topics, metadata, resolved variables. This is what makes Author-it an AI Content Foundation, not just a content management tool. Your existing structured content becomes queryable, retrievable, and AI-ready without any additional transformation layer. Deployment is cloud SaaS. Implementation is services-led, with expert information architecture guidance included. Contact us @ author-it.com

What is Arbortext?

To successfully create, manage, and distribute content, a well-organized system is crucial for ensuring that each stage of the workflow is both efficient and intelligent. With Arbortext, you can create a seamless flow of data and resources that connects content directly to those in the field. For example, starting with the initial engineering CAD data or the bill of materials (BOM), as this data moves through different business phases, it remains available to those responsible for producing technical documentation or service-related materials. Arbortext not only links these sources but also offers a systematic approach for sharing that information with field personnel or remote workers. Enjoy a streamlined data flow across the entire value chain that integrates every step of the product lifecycle. Update content easily as product development evolves and keep a strong connection to engineering data. Moreover, leverage XML authoring to enhance content reusability and maximize its value, which significantly boosts overall efficiency and productivity in your operations. This interconnected approach not only simplifies the documentation process but also ensures that relevant stakeholders always have access to the latest and most accurate information.
