Vantage ViewPoint

Most of the AI conversation in publishing happens at the front of the pipeline: screening, integrity checks, peer review. But every manuscript that passes the gate still has to be edited by a person, and that's where the volume actually lands. In this episode, host Avani Kavya is joined by Greg Suprock, Head of Solutions Architecture at Apex CoVantage, to talk about eden, a new AI editorial engine built for book and academic publishing. They discuss why a tool that raises a question is a different product from one that rewrites your text, the errors that only make sense if you know what the book is about, and how to keep the copyeditor in control rather than turning them into a rubber stamp. eden launches at the 2026 Frankfurt Book Fair, running October 7 to 11.

 Awareness isn't the problem anymore. Expertise is.

Over the past year, the question Rakhesh Ravi hears most often has changed. Organizations no longer ask whether digital accessibility matters; they ask who can actually help them do it. That's progress, and it has exposed a new gap.

In this quick episode, the Director of Marketing at Apex CoVantage looks at why accessibility is so hard to staff for, spanning design, development, UX, content, assistive technology, and regulation. He also answers the question that comes up every time: won't AI solve this? AI is brilliant at doing the work. People are still better at understanding why the work matters.
