About Octopus Newsroom

Octopus Newsroom develops flexible news production solutions for broadcasters and media organizations worldwide. Our portfolio includes Octopus 12, our newsroom computer system, and iReporter, our platform for user-generated content and mobile journalism. We support customers throughout the entire project lifecycle, from workflow analysis and system design to deployment, integration, training and ongoing technical support. Octopus 12 is a powerful and highly flexible newsroom computer system designed for modern broadcast and digital news production. It supports traditional television and radio workflows as well as collaborative, story-centric and digital-first production. Newsrooms can work rundown-first, story-first or combine both approaches within a single platform. Octopus integrates with more than 100 broadcast and media technologies, including studio automation, media asset management, playout, graphics, teleprompters, editing systems, wire services, digital publishing platforms and AI engines. Whether deployed on-premise, in the cloud or in a hybrid environment, Octopus helps newsrooms plan, create, produce and publish content more efficiently across every platform.
