What is FlatPlan?

FlatPlan is a no-code solution for delivering articles to Apple News. Our two-step installation enables publishers to get up and running on Apple News within a couple of weeks.

Our software replaces weeks of development, design, QA and project management work, and our expert team help editorial, audience and sales teams understand the opportunities available to publishers on Apple News.

We’ll also optimise your integration to boost your signal strength in the Apple News algorithm, which will maximise your reach around the app. And we equip publishers with a range of tools to help drive growth inside and outside Apple News.

Ultimately, our no-code software enables publishers in four key areas:

Reach – we connect you to Apple News and help maximise reach for your publication.
Retain
– we build reader retention mechanisms into your Apple News channel to help you turn newly reached readers into loyal followers.
Own – we help you achieve commercial success by driving readers back to owned environments where first-party data strategies kick into action.
Monetisation
– we help monetise that traffic on Apple News.

Getting started with FlatPlan is easy. We support all content management systems and handle integration to Apple News from end-to-end.
