Eidosmedia partners with Sophi.io on AI-powered print automation

Eidosmedia partners with Sophi.io on AI-powered print automation
Eidosmedia, a developer of digital publishing solutions for leading news-media groups worldwide, has partnered with Sophi.io, an AI-powered automation, optimization and prediction platform developed by The Globe and Mail, to bring seamless print laydown automation to Eidosmedia customers.

The solution brings the entire print page layout process down from hours to just minutes, without the use of templates. Publishers can dramatically improve productivity and cut costs, all within the Méthode platform they currently use.

“The complexity of print page layouts has until now defied the easy automation that speeds the publishing of online formats. “For our customers, especially large regional groups and national titles, print editions continue to be a major source of revenue. There’s intense interest in ways to cut production times and costs in this important publishing channel.”

Marco Cetola, Eidosmedia Sales and Partner Program Director

“The fit between our print edition building routines and Sophi’s AI engine turned out to be very good,” said Marco. “We were quickly able to start training the pagination model on existing layouts, and we had the first results in a matter of days”.

“The productivity boost obtained is exceptional,” said Marco, “especially for daily publications where the page-design operation is usually running against the clock.” In fact, a typical 32-page print edition can be paginated in minutes compared to several hours for a manual operation.

Sophi-powered print automation is different than other print production solutions in that it is completely template-free. It uses smart AI to ensure that a publisher’s printed pages look and feel as though they were produced by experienced editors and page designers. Each page is designed from scratch following each individual brand’s design vocabulary. The final output is a print-ready PDF or InDesign file that’s ready in minutes.

Among those who stand to benefit from the new technology are page designers themselves. Page designers have been under pressure for some time to increase their productivity as publishers try to cut costs. With fewer hands to lay out growing numbers of pages, the designer’s job has in many cases become a stressful race against time. The automation engine will take routine tasks off their hands so they can devote more time to the front pages, features and special layouts where their creativity can really add value.

“Page automation is the greatest innovation in the publishing industry since the personal computer replaced typewriters,” said Marco.

Gabe Gonda, VP at Sophi.io, commented: “Sophi is delighted to be entering a partnership with Eidosmedia to deliver our print automation technology through the Méthode platform. Eidosmedia is a first-class CMS vendor with deep knowledge of its clients’ evolving needs. This partnership will help deliver a unique and high-value solution to some of the best newspaper publishers in the world.”

Eidosmedia is a global leader in content management and digital publishing. Eidosmedia solutions are used by news-media organizations throughout the world to create and deliver portfolios of news products ranging from advanced digital formats to traditional newspapers and magazines.

About Sophi Inc.

It is a suite of AI and ML-powered automation, optimization and prediction solutions that include Sophi Site Automation, Sophi for Paywalls and Sophi for First Party Data.

Anyscale | September 20, 2023

San Francisco-based AI infrastructure company Anyscale has unveiled a new service, Anyscale Endpoints, at Ray Summit 2023. The service enables application developers to seamlessly integrate open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) into their projects using popular LLM APIs. Anyscale claims that Endpoints is significantly more cost-effective than proprietary solutions, with costs up to 10 times lower for specific tasks. Traditionally, developers faced challenges such as complex infrastructure, high compute costs, and time-consuming model development when working with open-source LLMs. Anyscale's Endpoints simplifies this process by offering easy API access to powerful GPUs at a competitive price, allowing developers to harness open-source LLM capabilities without the traditional complexity. Robert Nishihara, the Co-Founder and CEO of Anyscale, reportedly mentioned that historically, obstacles such as infrastructure complexity, compute resources, and cost had limited AI application developers’ use of open-source LLMs. The demand for generative AI and high-quality LLM applications is rapidly rising, with the generative AI market projected to grow from $40 billion in 2022 to $1.3 trillion over the next decade, according to Bloomberg Intelligence. Gartner notes the advantages of open-source models, including customizability, better deployment control, enhanced privacy and security, and the ability to leverage collaborative development. Anyscale offers Endpoints at a competitive rate of $1 per million tokens for state-of-the-art open-source LLMs, making LLM services more accessible to application developers. Additionally, Anyscale can quickly add new models, ensuring users have access to the latest innovations from the open-source community. Robert Nishihara, the Co-Founder and CEO of Anyscale, emphasized the significance of endpoints, stating, With seamless access via a simple API to powerful GPUs at a market-leading price, Endpoints lets developers take advantage of open-source LLMs without the complexity of traditional ML infrastructure. As AI innovation continues to accelerate, Endpoints enables developers to harvest the latest developments of the open-source community and stay focused on what matters—building the next generation of AI applications.

Users can pose a wide range of questions, such as: "Has my contract workload increased recently?" "What contracts are set for closure this quarter by the sales team?" "Have we ever agreed to unlimited liability?" Cai GoGwilt, Ironclad co-founder and Chief Architect, noted, Contract analysts can spend months on contract review, a crucial yet time-consuming task. CAI can handle routine questions, such as identifying total contract values in a specific jurisdiction, but it can also tackle challenging, creative inquiries in minutes. For instance, our team asked CAI to justify a pay raise, and it not only comprehended the question but delivered a compelling argument based on contract turnaround times, TCV metrics, number of contract terms, and more. [Source: PR Newswire] Todd Berman, the CTO of SMS marketing platform Attentive, emphasized the game-changing nature of Rivet's visual programming environment. He highlighted its collaborative nature and visual interface, which he believes allows for the creation of complex AI chains in significantly less time than other environments.
