Octopus newsroom system for radio rundown and guest workflows
New
Octopus 11 is a newsroom computer system used for news, radio, WebTV, sports and eSports production. The official use-case page explicitly includes radio stations as a supported workflow. For radio broadcasters, the site highlights rundown management, collaborative story production, planning, scheduling, editorial approvals and digital and linear publishing. It also says the system integrates with automation and other radio-relevant devices. Octopus describes additional radio-specific workflows such as managing transitions to commercial breaks, handling last-minute changes around jingles, and organizing guest speaker invitations. The system also offers remote production access through the Octopus Journalist App.
