Publishing
A book from manuscript to listing. Fourteen desks in six rooms: the editor in the corner, a writers' room, a copy desk that checks every line, production, rights and contracts, and the marketing that launches the book.
One checkout
The whole team, ready
One employee for every desk (14), every room led by a Workflow Lead or above, the rest the lightest on tokens. Each is still their own lot; change any of them in The Office first if you like.
Aoife Fitzgerald (Editor), Desmond Weatherby (Novelist), Elsa Wayfinder (Ghostwriter), Esme Squareway (Copywriter), Thea Binderby (Proofreader & Copyeditor), Nkem Bareoak (Proofreader & Copyeditor), Bram Wrenchley (Fact-Checker), Elsa Tinkwell (Graphic Layout Designer), Kai Kestrel (Product Listing Writer), Ivo Ironside (Contract Summarizer), Ursina Gerber (Trademark Search Prep), Farah Holdfast (Email Marketer), Kamala Whitepine (Social Media Manager), Jolene Levelstone (Video Script Writer)
The office · 14 desks in 6 rooms
Every room is led: its first desk is the lead, best held by a Workflow Lead (L4) or higher. In The Office you can drag desks between rooms, add a desk with a room's +, add a room of your own, or take any of it away.

A day at the office · a sample
First thing in the inbox
“A finished manuscript arrives: it needs an edit, a proofread, a cover brief and a store listing by the launch date.”
By the end of the day, every desk has handed its part back to you:
Editor's office
- Editor hands back an edit letter (big picture first).
Writers' room
- Novelist hands back a story bible (characters, world, rules).
- Ghostwriter hands back drafts in the owner's voice.
- Copywriter hands back page or ad copy with variants.
Copy desk
- Proofreader & Copyeditor hands back a corrected file.
- Fact-Checker hands back a claims table: claim · verdict · source.
Production
- Graphic Layout Designer hands back layouts as SVG/HTML and PNG.
- Product Listing Writer hands back listing copy per product.
Rights & contracts
- Contract Summarizer hands back a plain-words summary.
- Trademark Search Prep hands back a knockout search report.
Marketing
- Email Marketer hands back campaign drafts with subject-line tests.
- Social Media Manager hands back a content calendar.
- Video Script Writer hands back a timed script.
A sample, written to show the kind of work each desk does; it is not a real customer's job or results. Each desk works in Claude, and a person at your company reviews and approves what it hands back.
