Challenges: What happened Before?

Before implementing LongShot AI, India Today Group faced challenges in producing high-quality, factually accurate content at a rapid pace.

With over 50 million subscribers and 10 billion annual views across their print, television, and radio media companies, the pressure to deliver fresh and engaging content was immense.

The content team needed help to keep up with the demand, often resulting in delays and inconsistencies in their output. They were spending a lot of time researching and fact-checking information, which was taking away from their ability to produce high-quality content quickly.

The lack of an efficient content creation process was causing a delay in publishing news stories, leading to a reduction in their audience's engagement.

Triggering Incident: What led them here?

ITG realized its content creation process needed more long-term sustainability, especially with the increasing demand for fresh and accurate content.

They needed a solution to help them quickly and efficiently generate high-quality content while maintaining factual accuracy and avoiding plagiarism.
