Manuals live on a shared drive, licensed reference sits behind one terminal, and training material is a folder of PDFs nobody can find. DITA Platform puts all three in one place, with access by team.
Every company has a reference library. Almost none of them call it that, and none of them can find anything in it.
Your own material
Manuals that are actually current.
The version problem is the whole problem. One place, one current edition.
One current version. Update a manual and everyone has it. No stale copy on someone's desktop from two years ago.
Access by team. Engineering sees engineering material, legal sees legal. Connected to your existing sign-in, so it follows role.
Proper documents. Upload what you have and it becomes a readable, searchable ebook rather than a PDF that fights a phone screen.
Nothing leaves. Protected titles are encrypted per loan. A copied file isn't a readable document.
Licensed reference
What you already pay for, reachable.
You license reference works and standards already. The problem is that people can't get to them.
Host what you license. Titles you license directly sit on the same shelf, under the terms you agreed with the publisher.
We don't resell content. DITA supplies no commercial titles and takes no cut. Your licensing relationships stay yours.
Open access too. The Open Textbook Library by subject, free, for training and background reading.
Off the network. Borrowed material reads offline, on site visits, on planes, in facilities with no signal.
Practicalities
What IT will ask.
Your sign-in
Email and password today. Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra or SAML single sign-on — access follows role and department — is on the roadmap after launch.
Regional hosting
Choose where data lives, for whatever policy governs you.
No reader profiling
We don't build profiles or recommend by inferred interest, and we never sell or share anything.
Portable
Catalogue records, collections and access lists export in open formats whenever you want them.

Start with one team.
Free up to fifty readers. Put your manuals in, give one department access, and see whether it gets used.
