New publishing opportunities

Apps have arrived. Touchscreens on smartphones and tablet computers are creating rich experiences for readers, more opportunities for authors’ creative expression, and direct distribution channels via app stores.

IDEA has created three interactive apps for the iPad, and thanks to our unique SpicyNodes technology we’re poised to democratize apps based on concept mapping. These apps enable readers to browse, explore, and interact with seamlessly linked information, such as text, images, video, audio, and HTML. Apps can even include live data and visualizations. We are expanding into collaborative ventures, where authors and experts develop content, and our nimble team creates the app.

Whether you want to engage and inspire your readers by providing an immersive experience or encapsulate an interactive museum exhibit into the convenience of an app, IDEA can help.
