Digital publishing platform
The digital publishing platform built for your AI agents
Publishing is scattered across more channels every year, and that is where small teams lose. tchop™ puts AI agents to work on the parts a lean editorial team never gets to: content research, curation, repurposing, engagement, personalisation. Your team stays in control of every story.

Challenges
Why most digital publishing platforms lose their readers
Most publishing stacks end at the article page. Readers arrive through feeds that other platforms control, and the relationship never becomes your own.

Algorithm dependence
Social platforms decide which stories reach your readers, and reach can vanish overnight.
Scattered channels
Website, newsletter, podcast and social run side by side, with no single home for your audience.
Passive readers
Readers visit once and move on. Without habit loops there is no daily relationship.

Every format, one product
Long reads, podcast episodes, video explainers, and newsletters live together instead of in four separate apps.
Personalised story mixes
AI agents assemble each reader’s mix across formats, so the commuter gets the audio version and the desk reader gets the long read.
Desk-level targeting
The sport desk alerts its followers without waking the politics audience, and the other way round.
One front page, all formats
Your lead story, latest episode, and evening briefing share one front page your editors curate.
