ZANUS FRONT OFFICE FOR MEDIA, BROADCASTING & PUBLISHING

Next-generation AI for Media, Broadcasting & Publishing. Try it free on your own media company. No credit card.

Every advertiser answered. Every subscriber served. Two front desks, one AI, around the clock. ZANUS AI Front Office for Media is the AI receptionist, sales desk and audience-services desk for broadcasters, publishers, streaming services, radio groups and local media companies. It answers advertisers and audiences on phone, website chat, email and web forms — sends the media kit, quotes from your approved rate card, books the sales call and the studio guest, takes the subscription pause, the delivery miss and the login problem, files the make-good and follows up until the proposal is answered and the subscriber is back. Story tips, corrections, press and legal requests go to a person, with the details attached. Grounded only in the information your company approves: no source, no claim.

“Give us your website. Ten minutes later Zanus has built a private 7-day sandbox around your company: your knowledge, a phone line that answers as you, your website with Lisa on it, your dashboard with your data. Not old software with an AI button — the AI is the software.”

“No card. No setup fee. Per company, never per seat. You decide after you hear it answer as your company.” One trial per company: a working business website and an e-mail on its domain.

  1. 1
    Your website. Lisa reads it and proposes your departments and people; she asks only what the site does not say.
  2. 2
    Your sandbox, in ten minutes. A phone line in your area code that answers as you and transfers to your real phones, your website with Lisa on it, your dashboard with your data.
  3. 3
    Seven days on your business. Day 1 the first call; day 3 a mail “what your callers asked”; day 7 a report.
  4. 4
    Keep it or walk away. Buy any solution on any day and the sandbox becomes the account — same number, same knowledge, nothing redone. Walk away and nothing is charged.

What happens to every inquiry — in your media company

AnswersBooksServesSellsFollows upSupportsReports
Advertiser or audience contact

A dealer calling about a weekend package at 8 AM, a subscriber at 6 AM about a missing paper, an agency RFP by email, a login failure in chat at 10 PM — on either line, in any of 40 languages.

Answer

Media kit, rate card, packages, schedule, where to watch or listen, subscription options, the steps on your help pages — from your approved information only. No source, no claim.

Understand

Advertiser or subscriber, new or existing, which market or title, which desk — sales, audience services, circulation, newsroom, political sales, legal — your routing rules applied in the conversation. Editorial and legal matters go to a person.

Act

Send the media kit, quote from the rate card, book the sales call or the studio guest, file the pause, the hold or the make-good, transfer to the seller with the context whispered in, call back the hang-up.

Follow up

The proposal opened but unanswered, the flight ending next month, the advertiser who stopped buying, the paused subscriber, the introductory subscription about to renew — on schedule, with your approved offers, until done.

Record & report

Every touch on the advertiser’s or subscriber’s front-office record, written back to your traffic and subscription systems. Every morning a briefing: what was handled overnight, who needs a person today.

AI-driven end to end. A person wherever your rules require it. Anything editorial, legal or political, any complaint about content and anything outside your approved information waits for your people; the routine, the AI handles and reports.

One knowledge base feeds every channel

Websites, uploads, pages and articles, Q&A, battle cards, images and videos — you approve it once, and phone, chat, email, demos and quotes all answer from the same verified source. No source, no claim.

Knowledge — the verified knowledge base and website sync
The verified knowledge the AI answers from: documents, the website synced page by page, facts and corrections — never model memory.

40 languages, one bill, a help drawer over every screen

Languages and website translation, billing with plans, top-ups and alerts, onboarding, users & security, and the help drawer that answers from the platform manual — the plumbing that comes with it.

Languages — 40 languages, one knowledge
The language packs: which of the 40 languages are on, greetings and voices per language.

Private by architecture

Your Front Office runs in a private Cloudflare environment dedicated to your company — your own data-processing container, not a shared pool. Your knowledge stays yours: it never trains global models like GPT or Grok, and it is never shared.

  • Private data-processing environment per company
  • Grounded only in your knowledge
  • Claim guard: no source, no claim
  • Private environment option: an isolated environment with enterprise-grade security certifications, on request
Front Office settings — users, roles and security
Software your team operates — or an AI Front Office that does the work? This capability is part of one integrated Front Office: enable it when you need it, and the AI runs it with the rest.
Auto-Call — outbound AI calls on your rules

Auto-Call — the AI calls your advertisers and subscribers

Not only answering. From an automated event (a due date, a ready order, tomorrow’s appointment), a scheduled funnel or a list, the AI calls your registered contacts and announces your message — or talks as an agent: answers the question, moves the appointment, confirms, collects the missing detail. Call window, attempts, voicemail policy and consent rules are yours; every call is transcribed.

  • “Hi Gary, this is WKLM Radio: your spot schedule for next week is confirmed and the affidavit is in your inbox.”
  • “Hi Nina, this is the Herald Tribune calling about your subscription, which ends on the 30th. Would you like to renew now, or switch to digital only?”

Scheduled Auto-Call comes inside a solution — see pricing; calling back the hang-ups is part of AI Phone. How it works, in the Phone chapter ›

Questions, answered

Does the AI comment on our coverage or promise a correction or airtime?

No. It answers only from the information your company approves — media kit, rate card, schedule, subscription policies, help pages. It never explains an editorial decision, never promises a story, a correction or a spot, and never quotes political advertising terms: a tip, a correction request or a press inquiry is taken with the details and routed to the newsroom or the named contact; a political advertiser goes to your political sales contact; a complaint about content is acknowledged with your approved statement and filed for your standards desk. No source, no claim.

What happens to advertiser and subscriber information?

Your Front Office runs on a private data-processing environment dedicated to your company; agency rates, proposals and subscriber details never train public models and are never shared. Groups whose contracts require an isolated environment with specific certifications ask for a private environment — available on request.

Does it replace our traffic, order or subscription system?

No. It sits in front of them: the AI answers, quotes, books and files, then writes the accepted deal and the subscriber request back through Connectors — native calendar and CRM sync, webhooks and API. Your ad server, traffic and billing systems stay the record, and the AI does not change a subscriber’s billing on its own. Your systems stay; the phones stop ringing unanswered.

Try it free on your own media company. 7 days. No credit card.

Give it your website. It learns your company. Then call it, chat with it, e-mail it — and decide. Nothing to install, nothing to cancel.
