About

Author-it is an enterprise Component Content Management System (CCMS) with 25+ years in the structured authoring space. It helps regulated industries - manufacturing, software, utilities, aerospace, medical devices, financial services, and government - create, manage, review, translate, and publish content from a single source library. Write a topic once. Reuse it across manuals, portals, training, compliance docs, and localised outputs - automatically. No DITA required. No XML expertise needed. Author-it includes built-in translation workflow management, multi-stage review and approval, variant and conditional content, and AION - a structured JSON output format designed for direct LLM and RAG pipeline ingestion. Your content becomes your AI foundation, not just a document archive. Proven ROI: $3M+ annual savings in manufacturing, 90% content reuse in enterprise software, and compliance-ready documentation across heavily regulated environments. author-it.com

About

Paligo is built for organizations that manage large volumes of complex technical content - and need it to scale. Designed for structured documentation at high volume, Paligo helps teams turn documentation into a strategic asset through intelligent reuse, governance, and automation. At the core of Paligo is a cloud-native component content management system (CCMS) that lets teams author once and reuse content everywhere. This approach reduces duplication, accelerates updates, lowers translation costs, and ensures consistency across products, formats, and markets. The result is faster publishing, fewer errors, and documentation teams that can focus on impact rather than maintenance. Paligo combines powerful structured authoring with an intuitive SaaS interface, making it accessible to both experienced technical writers and broader content teams. From authoring and review to translation and multichannel publishing, Paligo supports the full documentation lifecycle.
