Why Yodest
Publishing a story shouldn't take eight tools.
Most editorial teams write in one app, talk in another and track everything in a spreadsheet. Stories get lost in between.
The usual newsroom stack
- Stories are assigned over WhatsApp and tracked in a spreadsheet
- Writers copy drafts into a chatbot and paste the answers back
- SEO checks happen in a plug-in, after the story is written
- Posting to the newsletter and social media is done by hand
- Performance lives in a separate dashboard nobody opens
With Yodest
- Every story is assigned and tracked on one publication desk
- AI suggestions appear inside the draft you are editing
- Quality and SEO checks run while you write
- One story publishes to web, newsletter and social together
- Author and article analytics sit next to the work itself
Product
Everything between the idea and the reader.
AI that works inside the story.
Suggest headlines, write newsletter summaries, fix SEO and add tags without leaving the draft. The AI reads what your journalist is writing, so there is nothing to copy and paste.
- Headline and summary suggestions
- Rewrites for tone, length and clarity
- Editors approve every change
Every story ready for search.
A live quality score checks titles, meta descriptions, readability, sources and image text as you write, and shows how the story will look in Google.
- Search preview before you publish
- Readability and source checks
- Clear fixes, not vague warnings
Know what works, and who wrote it.
See readers, traffic sources, top sections and author output in one dashboard, so desk meetings start with facts instead of guesses.
- Author and article performance
- Traffic by source and section
- Weekly trends at a glance
How it works
From assignment to audience in four steps.
Assign
The desk editor creates a story, picks an author and sets a deadline on the publication desk.
Write
The journalist drafts in the editor, with AI help for headlines, summaries and SEO.
Review
Editors check, comment and approve. Quality checks flag anything that needs fixing.
Publish and measure
One click sends the story to every channel. Analytics show how it performed.
Questions
Answers before you ask.
WordPress is a general-purpose CMS that newsrooms extend with plug-ins for workflow, SEO, AI and analytics. Yodest is built only for editorial teams, so assignment, review, AI writing help, SEO checks, publishing and analytics are part of one system and work together from day one.
Yes. We import your stories, authors, categories and images, and set up redirects so your existing URLs keep working and your search rankings carry over.
No. Yodest's AI helps your journalists: it suggests headlines, summaries, tags and SEO fixes for the draft they are working on. Editors stay in control of what gets published.
News portals, sports and business media, lifestyle and technology publishers, and independent teams of one to five people who want a full newsroom workflow without stitching tools together.
Book a 30-minute demo and we can get your team started. For a newsroom moving from another CMS, we plan the migration with you on a demo call based on the size of your archive.
