Online publishing platform
The online publishing platform for owned audiences
Online 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. You publish to a product you own.

Challenges
Why most online publishing ends on someone else's platform
Publish to a store, a feed, or a website you barely control, and the audience relationship belongs to the channel. Owned publishing means owning the product your readers open.

Marketplace terms
Stores and platforms set the rules, take the margin, and keep the reader data.
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.

An app beside your website
The website stays your front door; the app becomes the daily home of your registered readers.
Feeds that learn
AI agents watch what each reader finishes and reorder their feed, something a static homepage cannot do.
Scheduled push editions
A 7 am digest and a lunchtime update, delivered to readers who opted in, so no one has to remember to check the site.
Beyond the homepage
Evergreen guides and archive gems resurface in the feed instead of dying at the bottom of the sitemap.
