Shabash Merops is the world's most advanced automatic text editing and XML markup application.

Reduce production costs

Merops delivers significant workflow efficiencies by removing the drudgery and repetitive human intervention usually required for editing and XML mark-up.

Improve quality and consistency

Merops makes content adhere more accurately to editorial style, and reduces downstream checks required on paginated or XML outputs.

Publish faster

Merops edits content at an average speed of about 40 words per second, so a typical journal articles runs in less than 2 minutes. Because much of the editing is automated, documents are copy-edited faster. The XML, HTML or structured Word files can be immediately published online or passed on into composition systems.

• document styles are automatically identified and applied with no need for manual pre-tagging
• figures and tables are cross-checked, and tables converted from tabbed data into table cells
• references are styled, cross-checked with citations, and linked to CrossRef and PubMed, from which discrepancies can be retrieved and automatically resolved, all as part of the one-click run process
• XML conforming to major DTDs like NLM and DocBook is created as a natural by-product of the Merops automation
