Content Publisher Generally Available

Developers and marketers care about speed and quality, but they approach them from opposite ends. Content Publisher, now generally available to anyone, brings the creative and the technical together. This content workflow tool empowers teams to publish content directly from Google Docs and Word to their WordPress, Drupal, and Next.js websites.

Content Publisher

Now in Microsoft Word: Online and Desktop

Content Publisher started in Google Docs. Now it works directly in Microsoft Word – both the desktop app and the online version. Your content team can keep working exactly where they're comfortable, using the tools they already know, while gaining a direct path to your website. Content Publisher for Microsoft 365 is also available through our MCP server, enabling direct publishing and approval workflows from Microsoft Word for the Web via Claude, Gemini, or any AI assistant.

Quality Assistant

Built-in Accessibility Checker

Content Publisher’s new quality assistant can help with many common oversights by building an accessibility checker into the content workflow. Think missing alt text on images, broken heading hierarchy, or recurring link text like “click here.” This feature was born during our January hackathon and is already available.

Platform enhancements, built for you

Enhanced governance

Site Level Reporting

Until now, customers couldn’t see CDN-level traffic and had to rely on Support for this valuable information. With this release, you can access your site traffic directly in the Dashboard to help distinguish between wanted and unwanted traffic and what optimization steps to take next.
