Product overview
The current HermesAI product model, target users, and canonical domain split.
What HermesAI is
HermesAI is a multi-tenant AI newsroom SaaS for monitored international coverage, localized draft generation, editorial review, and delivery into existing publishing systems.
It is not a translation utility and it is not the customer CMS. The product value comes from the workflow layer around monitored sources, synthesis, editorial handling, and delivery.
The problem it solves
Local and regional publishers often cannot afford:
- international bureaus,
- large-volume wire access,
- dedicated translation and synthesis teams,
- or internal AI newsroom tooling.
That usually means slower international coverage and draft quality that feels more translated than editorially native.
The current solution shape
HermesAI provides a pipeline that:
- maintains a curated source catalog,
- fetches and normalizes live coverage,
- clusters overlapping event reporting,
- synthesizes a localized newsroom story,
- lets editors refine and route that story,
- exposes approved output through dashboard and integration surfaces.
Canonical domain split
| Domain | Audience | Routes | What belongs here |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tenant newsroom | Newsroom users | /app/* | Feed, story workflow, editorial review, monitoring, settings, notifications |
| Platform admin | Internal ops roles | /admin/* | Provider governance, queues, diagnostics, costs, deliveries, source health, tenant oversight |
Product rules that should not drift
- The localized article is the primary object.
- Confidence, provenance, conflicts, and queue state stay visible around the story.
- Provider and model controls belong in
/admin, not in the tenant app. - Settings are consolidated instead of scattered across many top-level pages.
Target customers
HermesAI is currently aimed at:
- digital news publishers,
- broadcast newsrooms,
- print publications,
- editorial teams that need faster international story intake.
The common value is the combination of source monitoring, localized synthesis, editorial workflow, and outbound delivery—not just raw content access.
