At IBC 2026, Octopus Newsroom introduced Octopus 13, the next generation of its newsroom computer system (NRCS), designed to help broadcasters modernize production while keeping journalists firmly in control.
In a new interview with InBroadcast, the Octopus Newsroom team explores how the latest generation of Octopus brings together agentic AI, Octopus MCP server, connected production, story-centric workflows, flexible collaboration and more than 100 integrations.
Octopus 13 is built around a modern approach to newsroom operations, connecting people, content and production tools in a single workflow. Agentic AI provides intelligent assistance across the newsroom, while the story-centric approach keeps the editorial process at the heart of news production.
The result is a more connected and flexible environment that enables news teams to collaborate efficiently across locations, platforms and production workflows without taking editorial control away from journalists.
