Give every issue its own stage, no new template

A magazine lives on its cover story, and every cover story wants to look different. Laioutr gives you a component library your editors use to assemble sections, dossiers and issue packages themselves. Digital subscriptions, bundles and the issue archive hang off the same surface.

The challenges in Weekly & magazine publishers

Weeklies and magazines work to the rhythm of the issue, not the hour. The design bar is higher for it: the cover story has to carry on the web the way it carries in print.

Four things come up again and again.

  • Every cover story wants its own look

    A dossier on housing looks nothing like a report from abroad. When each special form needs a new template, engineering capacity ends up deciding the design.

  • The issue disappears after two weeks

    The issue is out, the articles slide out of their sections, the archive is a list of links. Your back catalog stops working for you.

  • Too many clicks between article and subscription

    The reader hits the paywall, lands in the subscription shop, sees a different layout and drops out. Every system change costs conversions.

  • Several magazine brands, one small digital team

    Each brand has its own sections, its own newsletter tracks, its own ad environments. The same two or three people maintain all of them.
Issue stage

Cover stories and sections from one kit

Your editors assemble cover packages, section pages and dossiers from blocks that already exist. The design stays inside the brand because the library sets the frame.

Full bleed opener, pull quote run, photo gallery, interview layout: the formats sit ready as blocks and recombine per cover story.

You create a new section in the editor and wire it to your editorial system. No template release, no waiting.

Each magazine brand is a variant of the same storefront with its own type and color. Every brand shares the same blocks.

Subscription path

Digital, bundle and the issue archive in one path

The route from article through paywall into the subscription shop runs in the same layout and the same brand. The issue archive becomes a surface of its own along the way.

Teaser, paywall copy and price blocks live in the editor. Your subscription team tests offers per section without changing the article template.

Print, digital, e-paper and bundle need a comparison people can actually read. You build it from blocks instead of a PDF table.

Every issue gets a page with cover, contents and articles. The archive becomes searchable and internally linked.

Built with
Reach

Fast pages that turn readers into subscribers

Pages are delivered from the edge and images run through an image CDN. Big openers stop costing load time and start carrying the package.

The image CDN serves formats and sizes to fit the device. Your photo desk works with the original, the reader gets the right derivative.

Search, topic pages and author pages open the back catalog beyond the current issue. The AI products for search and discovery plug in when you want them.

Subscription offers, special issues and partnerships get their own pages from the same kit. Marketing builds them without a ticket.

Built with
Integration

Connects with your existing systems

  • Storyblok
  • Shopware
  • CleverReach
  • Usercentrics
  • Algolia
  • AT Internet (Piano)

Behind the scenes there is usually an editorial system for articles and sections plus a subscription platform. The subscription shop and single issue sales often run on Shopware or Shopify.

Consent tool, analytics, newsletter delivery and search come along as apps. What is already connected is listed in the App Store.

Frequently asked questions about Laioutr for Weekly & magazine publishers

Freely inside the library. Your editors recombine blocks, change order and sizing and create their own packages. New blocks get added when a format is needed permanently.

It stays. Laioutr is the frontend layer on top and pulls articles, sections and metadata in through an app.

Landing pages come together from blocks that already exist. Across projects so far, time to launch for landing pages is around 65% shorter than the classic ticket route.

The archive stays in your editorial system and the frontend renders it fresh. You point old URLs at the new pages so reach and inbound links survive.

Brands run as variants of one storefront, the same way languages and markets do. Shared blocks are maintained once, while type, color and sections stay specific to each brand.
