The calm path from pitch to print
Tern gives independent editorial teams one shared view of pitches, drafts, fact checks, art, and deadlines. It is intentionally opinionated: fewer states, clearer ownership, and no mystery queues.
const nextState = {
pitch: "commissioned",
commissioned: "draft",
draft: "edit",
edit: "fact-check",
"fact-check": "ready",
} as const;
The system now coordinates six publications while keeping each magazine’s voice and process intact.
