No, smartocto is not the only editorial analytics tool out there. But, we are the most actionable. Our combination of features not only brings data into the newsroom or marketing department, it also helps you act on the data.

From the way we approach content analytics, to the reports, dashboards and notifications we deliver; everything is designed to help you make every decision count - and ultimately ensure that your business is profitable. In October 2023, we launched smartocto.ai. That's an enormous step, since content analytics can be combined with the abilities of Large Language Models:

  • advanced headline testing
  • automatic content classification (including user needs)
  • smart story rewriting
  • timing optimisation
  • an intelligent virtual assistant

What makes smartocto unique

The true strength of smartocto comes from our combination of both real-time and historical data. Our customisable dashboards show all the real-time information that matters to you, while the detailed historical reports allow you to hone your editorial strategy. Discover the benefits of our compound metrics (loyalty, exposure and engagement) all of which help you get to know your audience.

What's more, with knowledge of the past and insight in the present, we're able to make accurate predictions for future articles. Based on author, topic, and more, our algorithm predicts the best way out for every story and sends smart notifications to help steer you in the right direction.
