Lille, France / Chicago, USA, December 1, 2025—Nord Compo, a global leader in publishing services, announced two AI-enhanced tools to advance the company’s growing suite of innovations designed to streamline production workflows, reduce costs, and uphold the highest quality standards for publishers worldwide.
Descripto: Smarter, Faster Image Accessibility
Descripto transforms the process of creating image descriptions for accessible EPUB files. Using contextual AI, the tool analyzes images alongside surrounding text to generate accurate short and long descriptions. Publishers can then review, fine-tune, or designate images as decorative directly within the platform. Finalized descriptions are automatically integrated back into the EPUB, ensuring a seamless end-to-end workflow.
The key value propositions are faster workflows through automating a time-consuming task and cost savings by minimizing manual labor without compromising quality.
Correcto (coming soon): AI-Assisted Copyediting Excellence
Correcto blends the precision of AI with the judgment of seasoned editors. Built on the Chicago Manual of Style, the tool performs an initial copyediting pass before professional editors review and validate. Early testing shows that this hybrid model improves accuracy and consistency while reducing turnaround time.
The key value propositions are greater accuracy from AI + human review, cost savings, and time optimization.
Security and Human Oversight
Per Arnaud Lecompte, Director of International for Nord Compo, “These tools are part of Nord Compo’s expanding portfolio of AI-enhanced services designed to help publishers operate more efficiently in an increasingly complex market.” Each tool is deployed within a secure, closed environment and includes human oversight at every step to ensure trust, transparency, and editorial integrity.
Nord Compo, a multinational company with more than five decades of experience and a team of 600 employees across three continents, continues to set the standard in composition, digital publishing, editorial services, and audiobook creation.
