METADATA MASTERY

Take control of your metadata

With a best-practice approach to ONIX for Books and national subsets, we have made metadata so intuitive and simple that anyone can add, view and edit metadata elements in-app without getting lost in XML-files and irrelevant metadata categories.

The cherry on top: We let you export your metadata as ONIX files.

NO MORE LOST INFORMATION

Nightingale automatically keeps a log of all actions performed

No more hours spent communicating basic info to coworkers, authors, or freelancers. We give you a simple overview with a concise log of who did what and when. The log includes automated tasks and in-app messages at title-level.

The platform also supports notifications, confirmations, and task reminders.

BUILT FOR HIGH-VOLUME

More titles does not have to equal more work.

More titles do not have to equal more work.

Bulk upload functions and high-volume single orders will allow you to handle the administrative (and let’s be honest – boring!) tasks of publishing.

(Trust us. We did it with our 1500 titles.)

TOGGLE-FREE TASK SYSTEM

Move through your tasks without switching systems

Clicking and scrolling is a motivation-killer!

Our task system is hyper-linked to take you directly to the page and fields that needs your attention.

We give you all the information you need, and nothing more. Expand and collapse information as needed to keep focus on what you need,

And we're just getting started…

We’re developing the tools you need, every day.
