Acrolinx is an AI-powered Editorial Manager. The world’s largest brands, including companies like Microsoft, Apple, Citi, and Volkswagen use Acrolinx to infuse automation across their editorial process, resulting in huge efficiency as measured in time to publication and cost. In addition to efficiency benefits, companies like the ones I mentioned improve overall brand alignment across content, reduce risk associated with problematic content, and increase the business impact of everything they write. Generative AI is helping companies make MORE content, but not better content, resulting in editorial bottlenecks and backlogs, meaning that, while there is real value in the use of GenAI, companies simply can't realize that value without an automated Editorial Manager like Acrolinx.
Our customers rely on our AI to ensure consistent and high-quality writing on a global scale. Chances are, you’ve read some text today that Acrolinx software helped to shape.
