The Masthead

A masthead of articles in series, each with its versions, notes in the margin and a schedule beside it.

On the screen, an article sits in its series with its earlier versions, the notes readers left in its margins and the date it is set to appear. Behind it are the ideas, outlines and reading groups that a working magazine keeps. It is the widest record the house has built, so a question asked of one article can be answered from all of them. Under licence it carries your name, your domain and your colours, and keeps its records in a database of its own. It is being finished now, and can be shaped with you before it opens.

The Masthead is the house's name for it. Under licence it takes yours. The people who use it see your name at the top, your domain in the address, your colours on the page, and never the house's.

• Your nameThe app is introduced as yours, on every screen they open.
• Your domainIt answers at an address you hold, so the link you give is the link they keep.
• Your recordsWhat your people write in it is kept in a database of its own, as yours, not pooled with anyone else's.

It is being finished. It can be finished with you, so that the version you carry is shaped by the people it is for.

• Articles in series, with versions
• Margin notes and ratings
• Editorial calendar
• Reading and study groups
• Author profiles

Magazines, independent publishers and organisations that write in public.

Read beside the field it serves, the school, the press and the author: A book that can be taught, under your imprint, in a room that reads like one.

It was made beside the house's own press, which sets its books as issues of a magazine and keeps them in print for good.

The books it was made beside are kept in The Library, to be read before any conversation, so the voice the app speaks in is known first.

1. Read from The Library, so the voice behind The Masthead is known before anything is asked.
2. See The Masthead beside the apps chosen with it for your field, below.
3. Request a conversation. A few lines are enough: your name, your practice, and which app.
4. The fitting: The Masthead shown wearing your name and your colours.
5. The terms, in sentences: what you keep, what it costs, and how you would leave.
6. Live on your domain, with your people's records in a database of its own.

The terms are set in conversation with Ammanuel and written in sentences, never on this page.
