Assigning content creation, reviews, approvals, and feedback was a huge time sink and the manual process wasn't scaling. There were many redundant and rule-based activities that should ideally require no effort, but they were sinking valuable time for the lack of automation.

One of the biggest challenges that Preply faced during content creation was the incessant back and forth over email which posed several difficulties. When creating content with tools like MS Word or Google docs, the team would have to constantly seek inputs, share files, or offer feedback through email.
This slowed down their content process as they would have to keep toggling between the content editor tool and the email application. Back and forth over email also made it difficult to keep track of their conversations as there was no way to manage all the relevant conversations about a content task in one place.
Narrato solved this problem for Preply by bringing their entire team, content process, and communication on one platform. With Narrato's seamless collaboration features, the team has now consolidated all content-related conversation and have one space to track the progress of all content in production. The on-task messages and in-line content feedback makes it easier to understand the context of the discussion. The content creators are also able to access the AI content assistant and other content creation and optimization tools easily at the same place, increasing their productivity multi-fold.
"We have been able to increase the number of content pieces produced by 40%, getting rid of back-and-forth emails and using multiple tools at the same time for different purposes within the platform."
