How Do Publishers Use Insight AI?
Work With Manuscripts
Our AI Chat is optimized for books and long-form content. Editors can examine and develop manuscripts. Marketing, PR, and sales teams can create targeted materials from the same source.
Prepare for Production
Insight handles complex production tasks like proofreading against your house rules, checking corrections, preparing files for typesetting, generating indexes, and updating EPUBs for accessibility.
Get Books to Market
Create metadata, keywords, and marketing images. Localize and translate to reach new audiences, and search your entire catalogue in natural language.
Built for your whole organization
With Veristage, your whole team works from the same foundation of standards, templates, content, and institutional knowledge — instead of every person starting fresh with a general AI tool.
Team Document Libraries: Share manuscripts, metadata, and AI-generated content across your organization. Everyone works from the same sources.
Consistent Metadata: Whether your intern or your senior editor uploads a manuscript, Insight applies the same standards and generates comparable results.
AI Profiles: Share writing styles, brand voice, and background information about your publishing house or imprints so every output reflects how you work, whoever is using the platform.
Shared Tool Templates: Save and share prompts, report formats, and tool configurations so the whole team benefits.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Insight?
Developed by Veristage, Insight is a secure AI platform built specifically for book publishers. It handles the full publishing workflow—from manuscript evaluation and editorial development to production, metadata, marketing and PR, sales, and back catalogue search. Insight’s tools are optimized for publishing tasks and book-length content. In addition to fully supporting publishing standards like BISAC, Thema, and ONIX, Insight can be connected to a publisher’s existing systems.
Insight can work with various file types including Word, PDF, EPUB, XML, HTML and RTF. The platform interface is available in multiple languages, and Insight’s tools work across many more languages. Insight’s built-in AI Chat includes agentic tools specifically for publishing tasks and includes large language models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google.
What types of publishers use Insight?
Insight is used by trade publishers, academic and university presses, educational publishers, institutional publishers, and small presses in 17 countries. Our customers range from three-person teams to multinational publishing organizations. Insight is a highly configurable platform that works with a wide variety of content types and can be tailored to your company’s needs.
How is Insight different from ChatGPT or other AI tools?
General AI tools like ChatGPT aren’t designed for publishing workflows. They struggle with long documents, don’t understand publishing-specific metadata standards, and can’t process entire books at once. Insight’s AI book publishing tools are different:
- Built for books: Optimized to work with full-length manuscripts, not just short snippets.
- Publishing-specific outputs: Generates metadata like BISAC and Thema codes, keywords, marketing descriptions, and more. Export this as ONIX, CSV, and XML.
- Tools for publishers: Our tools give you consistent results based on your own processes and rules. Proofread with your own house style guide, create indexes, remediate EPUBs for accessibility, translate full manuscripts, and create ready-to-use A+ and marketing content.
- Built for teams: Shared AI Profiles, documents, standards, and templates mean everyone in your organization works from the same foundation, rather than each person starting from scratch with their own chat account.
- Secure and private: Your content is never used to train AI models. Veristage is ISO 27001 certified.
- Team collaboration: Shared document libraries, tool templates, AI Styles for consistent voice, and collaborative chat notebooks.
Is my content secure? Will it be used to train AI models?
Your content is never used to train large language models. We take copyright and data protection seriously—this is non-negotiable. Veristage is ISO 27001 certified, which means we have a robust information security management system in place. Your documents are encrypted and stored securely. We use enterprise AI APIs with data processing agreements that prohibit training on your content.
