Everything the house needs

Connected modules that cover the house from end to end

No scattered spreadsheets, no lost email threads: every department works on the same record and sees only what concerns it.

  • Manuscripts & committee

    Receive and register manuscripts, collect committee reviews and conflict-of-interest declarations, and turn a documented decision into an official book in one step.

  • Contracts & rights

    Real contract templates with their variables, an approval and signature cycle, and a register of print, translation, audio and electronic rights.

  • Production & tasks

    Workflow templates with dependent tasks, due times and escalation, so everyone knows what is theirs and when it is due.

  • Editing & design

    File versions that are never overwritten, author sign-off on the text, cover rounds with three proposals, and a preflight checklist.

  • Printing & procurement

    From print specifications and spine width to quotations, purchase orders, proofs and quality inspection.

  • Finance & pricing

    A financial card per book with its cost lines, price books, and exchange rates with effective dates and approval.

  • Inventory & warehouses

    A movement ledger that cannot be edited, balances per warehouse, and approved transfers, counts and adjustments.

  • Shipping & compliance

    Shipments and routing rules — and no book leaves for a market it is not approved for.

  • Sales & customers

    Customers, special prices, orders that reserve stock, and returns and refunds decided on the record.

  • Fairs

    Each fair’s book list, the stock sent to it, its sales, and a closing settlement in numbers.

  • Digital & marketing

    Digital editions and sales channels, with each book’s Arabic and English details per channel and market.

  • Reader reports & errata

    Reader reports, approved corrections, errata, and reprint requests linked to them.

A book's journey

From the author's first page to the reader's hands

Every stage has an owner and conditions, and a book does not move on until its stage is complete.

  1. Manuscript

    Registered with the author’s file and its source.

  2. Decision

    Committee opinions, then a decision on the record.

  3. Contract

    From a real template, approved and signed.

  4. Production

    Editing, layout, cover and preflight.

  5. Printing

    Quotations, a purchase order and QC.

  6. Inventory

    Received into a ledger that cannot be edited.

  7. Sales & fairs

    Orders, reservations and fair settlements.

  8. Reader

    Their reports come back as corrections or reprints.

Strengths

Built to stand up to any management review

What sets Publishing apart is not the number of screens, but that every action has a clear owner, is recorded, and can be reviewed.

  • Nothing runs on a rule nobody approved

    Business rules — who approves a contract, a price, a purchase order — are recorded and explicitly approved before they take effect, with who approved them and when.

  • Precise permissions per role

    More than 180 permissions, adjustable roles, segregation of duties where needed, and a restricted scope for outside authors, publishers and vendors.

  • A record that cannot be erased

    Every action is logged in a verifiable chain, and sensitive records such as decisions and the stock ledger cannot be edited at the database level.

  • Protected files

    Manuscripts and contracts sit in private storage, open through short-lived links, and every download is logged with who made it.

  • Arabic first

    A right-to-left interface designed for Arabic, with an instant switch to complete English.

  • Visibility for every team

    A dashboard per role and notifications about what matters to each person, so management does not wait for reports to know where every book stands.

How registration works

  1. 1

    Register your house

    Its name and field, the representative’s details, and a password you choose.

  2. 2

    We review and get in touch

    You receive an email with your reference number, and a team member follows it.

  3. 3

    We approve and create your workspace

    The account is created only on approval, and the applicant becomes the owner of the house’s workspace, with every permission in it.

  4. 4

    Sign in and start

    With the email and password you chose when registering.

What authors find in their account

  • Their shared manuscripts, and where each one stands
  • The house’s decisions on their manuscripts, with the notes and messages meant for them
  • The contracts sent to them, to read
  • Shared documents, which they can comment on
  • Downloads of the files shared with them

For authors

Everything the house shares with you, in one place

Instead of scattered emails, authors find the manuscripts, contracts and files the house shares with them in their account, along with its decisions and notes on them.

We review every request before activation, and an author only ever sees what the house shares with them.

Frequently asked questions

Who can register?

Publishing houses and authors. A house registers through an authorised representative with their name, email and phone; authors register themselves through the author form.

Can authors register themselves?

Yes. Authors register through the sign-up link their house shares, or pick the house from the list on the “Register as an author” form; the house reviews the request, activates the account, and the author only ever sees what the house shares with them.

What happens after I submit?

You receive an email with your reference, then our team reviews the details and gets in touch. On approval your house’s workspace is created and you receive the activation email.

Can I sign in before approval?

No. A request is not an account: the account is created only on approval, and you then sign in with the email and password you chose.

Who decides what my account can do?

The house owner holds every permission inside their house’s workspace, and adds their team and authors and decides each one’s role themselves.

Is my data safe?

Your password is stored encrypted and nobody can read it, every action on your request is logged, and your details are used only to review the request and contact you.

Is the platform available in English?

Yes. The interface is complete in Arabic and English, and you can switch at any time.
