Content platform
The content platform where your content meets its audience
A content platform is where content is created, organized, and delivered in one place. tchop is the front end of that: your own branded app where content reaches readers or employees, with feeds, push, community, and subscriptions, not just a place to store files.

Content teams building on tchop
What is a content platform?
A content platform is software for creating, organizing, and delivering content to an audience in one place. The word is used broadly, from back-end systems that store content to front-end products that put it in front of people. What separates them is whether content just sits there or actually reaches its audience.
tchop is a content platform on the delivery side. It is your own branded app, the place where your content meets the people it is for, with feeds, push notifications, community, and subscriptions. It connects to the content you already produce and turns it into a product readers or employees open every day.
That is the distinction that matters. Managing content and delivering it to an audience are two different jobs. tchop does the second, and does it as something you own.
Content delivery, not just content management
"Content platform" spans two very different layers. Here is where tchop sits.
CMS and DAM
A CMS or digital asset manager stores and organizes content on the back end. It is plumbing for teams, with no audience and no app. tchop connects to it rather than replacing it.
