Frequently Asked Questions
What is Insight?
Insight is a secure AI platform built specifically for book publishers. Upload a manuscript and Insight automatically generates metadata (BISAC codes, Thema subjects, keywords), editorial analysis, marketing material, and comp title recommendations. The platform’s AI chat is optimized for long-form content and includes several publishing-specific tools. Insight’s AI-powered document tools work at book scale: generate alt text for accessibility, create indexes, proofread with custom rules, translate full books, and scan for sensitivity issues.
What types of publishers use Insight?
Insight is used by trade publishers, academic and university presses, educational publishers, institutional publishers, and small presses in 13 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
- Document-scale tools: Create indexes, generate alt text, and proofread across entire books, not one page at a time
- 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.
How much does Insight cost?
Pricing depends on your team size, usage needs, and configuration requirements. We offer affordable options for small publishers and scalable solutions for larger organizations. Contact us for pricing information.
Do you provide training and support?
Yes. We provide hands-on onboarding training for your team, ongoing Q&A sessions, demos of new features, and best practices for working with AI. We enjoy working directly with our customers and are available to help you get the most out of Insight.
