Introducing Markup AI: Your enterprise content guardian agent

September 17, 2025 /

Generative AI has unleashed content that traditional review processes can’t keep up with. Content marketers use AI, yet most tools stop at spelling, grammar, or readability checks. Enterprises operate at industrial scale with thousands of authors, dozens of LLMs, millions of pages, and vast policy and terminology libraries. Without automated oversight, risk compounds fast.

Launched as a spinoff of NLP pioneer Acrolinx, Markup AI delivers an integrated suite of Content Guardian Agents for enterprise use cases:

  • Scan, Score, Rewrite – Agents analyze content against brand, terminology, compliance, and industry standards, assign a deterministic trust score, and instantly provide actionable rewrites.
  • Customizable Criteria – Enterprises can set governance rules (rewrite automatically or require human review) to balance efficiency and oversight.
  • Developer-First Architecture – With an API-first, MCP-powered design, Content Guardian Agents integrate into tools enterprises already use including Cursor, Figma, ChatGPT, Github Actions, Zapier. These integrations deliver compliance and quality checks without disrupting workflows.
  • Enterprise-Ready Scalability – Built for mission-critical environments, Guardian Agents plug into CI/CD pipelines, authoring tools, and enterprise applications to guard content wherever it’s created.

Markup AI also launched five AI Agents to address a core element of content quality: Terminology Agent, Consistency Agent, Tone Agent, Clarity Agent, Spelling & Grammar Agent.

Atlassian to acquire The Browser Company

September 4, 2025 /

From the Atlassian blog… (Also see details from The Browser Company)

Building the AI browser for knowledge workers – a browser that helps you do, not just browse.

Today, I’m excited to share an exciting step forward for Atlassian. We’ve entered into an agreement to acquire The Browser Company of New York, the team behind the incredible Dia and Arc browsers.

By combining The Browser Company’s passion for building browsers people love with Atlassian’s deep expertise on how the world’s best teams operate, we have the opportunity to transform how work gets done in the AI era…

Today’s browsers weren’t built for work. They were built for browsing – reading the news, watching videos, looking up recipes. And sure, you may do some of those things in your browser during the workday, but most of those tabs represent a task that needs to get done. A meeting to schedule. A design to review. A work item to update in Jira. A memo to write. Before you know it, it’s hard to see through the forest of tabs.

Knowledge workers need a browser designed for their specific needs, not one that’s been built for everyone on the planet. That’s what we will build with The Browser Company. Our vision is to make Dia the browser:

  • Optimized for the SaaS apps where you spend your day. Whether you’re working in email or a project management tool or a design app, your tabs will be enriched with context that helps move your work forward.
  • Packed with AI skills and your personal work memory to connect the dots between your apps, tabs, and tasks.
  • Built with trust and security in mind Security, compliance, and admin controls will be baked into every aspect of Dia.

RWS acquires Papercup’s IP

June 26, 2025 /

RWS, a content solutions company powered by technology and human expertise, has acquired the intellectual property behind Papercup’s AI dubbing technology – known for its unique ability to reproduce a speaker’s tone, pace and emotion faithfully.

The acquisition is a strategic step in RWS’s wider plan to embed advanced AI across its technology stack, accelerating its ability to support enterprise clients with multilingual video, voice and content localization across multiple formats and channels.

Papercup’s technology combines voice synthesis, thousands of unique AI voices and editorial tools for human language specialists to fine-tune the output – offering control and quality output comparable to human dubbing by actors and artists, at a fraction of the cost and turnaround time.

While AI-only dubbing tools often fall short on critical elements like timing, voice consistency and speaker identification, RWS’s hybrid approach puts humans in the loop to optimize tone, pacing and accuracy – enabling video dubbing that’s both scalable and brand-consistent.

Enterprise clients can expect to unlock value from video content that was once too expensive or complex to localize. Papercup’s technology will now sit alongside RWS’s existing suite of language technologies – including Language Weaver for neural machine translation and the Trados platform.
