Your team's format, saved as a template.

The 24 built-in templates cover most pages. When your team has a structure of its own, build it on the template canvas from a library of sections, and every article can follow it.

When you need one

When a built-in template isn't enough.

House style

Your editors already have a format

Years of testing went into it. The tool should follow it rather than replace it.

Agencies

Each client wants their own structure

One client's product review looks nothing like another's. Save each as its own template.

New formats

A page type with no template yet

Release notes, partner pages, event recaps. Build the structure once and reuse it.
