The whole print decision from launch to backlist.
DemandSens Print Run turns the two highest-stakes calls in publishing into structured, explainable decisions: how many copies to print at launch, and whether — and how — to reprint as the title lives on.
How many copies to print for a new release — before publication, grounded in real comparable titles and publisher objectives. Three scenarios, an explainable quality score, the decision stays yours.
Whether, when and how much to reprint — on live sales, stock and returns. The engine screens the whole catalogue nightly, sizes the run and picks the technology, with a costed recommendation.
Only part comes back as sellable stock — the rest is pure cost. Both decisions model this explicitly.
Objectives set at the top of the editorial pyramid and inherited down — no per-title parameterisation.
The backlist is screened every night; only titles at real risk surface as a decision.
