Naviga Newsroom Planner
Minnetonka, Minnesota, USA
What it is
Naviga Newsroom Planner is a browser-based planning hub for editorial teams tracking events, plans, and assignments from conception through publication. Editors and managers can coordinate article, photo, video, and digital-development work while viewing asset status in one place. Coverage plans can link different asset types, and each linked asset can be edited from the plan. Story ideas and pitches can remain in a backlog until a team schedules them or changes direction. Assignments identify responsibility and timing, while email notifications alert reporters and photographers to assignments or plan changes. An article assignment can create a draft in Naviga Writer. Template-based configuration supports tagging, and newsroom metadata and terminology can be tailored to editorial workflows. The product integrates with Naviga Writer, Naviga Photos, and Publication Planner. Its Content Creation Tools API supports plugins and integrations, and Naviga hosts the SaaS product in Amazon Web Services.
