Bring together content and assets by story, and make them available to all teams and departments – consistent and efficient, regardless of silos or channel-specific stories.

Who’s planning to cover this topic and through which channels? With the topic timeline, you can always see which stories grow from a topic and when they go live.

The integrated AI in Newsmind Stories automatically monitors all relevant sources and delivers what matters – in real time, right to your dashboard.

Use the powerful search and filter features to quickly find what’s already in your system – making it easy to turn existing material into something new.

Coordinate better, work consistently, and avoid duplicate efforts: With Related Topics or the news status, you’ll automatically know when someone is preparing the same topic or has updated it globally.

Who’s working on this topic? Who needs to approve it? Set roles, responsibilities, and deadlines around each topic so nothing is left unclear.

With Newsmind Stories, topics become cross-channel stories – planned together, easy to coordinate, and always aligned with the big picture.
