Eidosmedia platforms handle the creation and delivery of your content from the latest voice-interactive and social media formats to traditional products like printed newspapers and magazines.
Eidosmedia solutions combine the following platforms and workspaces:
Méthode is the world’s most evolved CMS editorial workflow and publishing platform.
Méthode gives you complete control of the content management process from initial planning and workflow coordination to final publication.
Automation of many routine processes, together with checks and validations, lets you combine high productivity with rigorous quality control.
In addition to the news-media sector, Méthode is also used for investment and financial reporting by many institutions in the financial sector.
You can use Eidosmedia’s latest platform, known as Cobalt, to feed a complete range of digital channels: websites, mobile and tablet apps, social media feeds, blogging, interactive voice – including future digital formats that have not yet been invented.
Cobalt is a ‘decoupled’ CMS for newspaper – content from the back-end editorial processes is exposed in channel-neutral JSON format via a complete range of standard RESTful APIs. These interface with the delivery modules – native or open-source – which transform the content into digital products.
You can constantly update the delivery modules to keep up with technological developments or consumer tastes. At the same time, your core platform components and editorial processes remain undisturbed.

Eidosmedia platforms free your staff up to add more value to their content by completely automating many routine content-handling tasks that consume time and resources in conventional solutions.
Examples range from the automatic generation of formats when an image enters the workflow to one-click publishing to multiple channels at the end of the process.
You can be sure that your published content complies with all QA and regulatory conditions, thanks to a granular system of permissions and checkpoints. At each stage of the process only authorized users may carry out permitted actions.
These checks and controls are highly automated, giving you high standards of quality and compliance without intensive manual inspection – allowing you to overcome the usual trade-off between speed of delivery and product quality.
You can eliminate all on-premise installation requirements by combining the cloud hosting of server functions with the Swing mobile workspace.
