Arc XP has announced a partnership with Tickaroo to expand live blogging and real-time publishing capabilities for media organizations. The collaboration enables Arc XP customers to embed Tickaroo live blogs directly into the Arc XP platform through a custom Power Up integration, helping publishers streamline live coverage workflows and improve audience engagement.
The integration is designed to support newsrooms covering breaking news, sports, elections, live events, and other rapidly developing stories within their existing publishing environments.

The partnership combines Arc XP’s digital publishing platform with Tickaroo’s live blogging technology to provide publishers with integrated tools for delivering live coverage and real-time storytelling.
According to the companies, the integration allows editorial teams to manage live updates more efficiently while improving publishing speed, flexibility, and audience engagement during fast-moving news events.
"Arc XP is focused on helping media organizations build stronger, more sustainable digital businesses, and that starts with giving newsrooms tools that make their work faster, simpler, and more impactful," said Sharad Vivek, Head of Partnerships at Arc XP. "Tickaroo shares our belief that technology should simplify editorial workflows, not complicate them. This partnership gives our customers a practical way to deliver high-quality live coverage while keeping their teams focused on reporting, audience engagement, and growth."
Tickaroo’s platform is used by news, sports, and media organizations to deliver live updates, multimedia storytelling, and collaborative reporting workflows. The company stated that live coverage has become an increasingly important tool for publishers seeking to strengthen audience relationships and create new monetization opportunities.
"Live coverage has become one of the most important ways publishers build connection and trust with their audiences and drive sustainable revenue at the same time," said Naomi Owusu, CEO and Co-Founder of Tickaroo. "By partnering with Arc XP, we are making it easier for media organizations to bring real-time storytelling into their existing publishing environments. Together, we can help newsrooms work more efficiently, engage audiences more deeply, and create new opportunities for sustainable growth."
The integration also supports AI-powered workflows and distributed newsroom collaboration, helping publishers coordinate coverage across teams and locations.
RND RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland, a shared customer of both Arc XP and Tickaroo, highlighted the operational benefits of integrating live blogging tools directly into newsroom publishing systems.
"Real-time coverage is central to how we serve audiences across fast-moving news and events. The combination of Arc XP and Tickaroo gives our teams a more integrated way to publish live updates, streamline workflows, and keep readers engaged when stories are developing quickly," said Martin Kautz, Head of Media Technologies, RND RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland.
The partnership reflects broader trends in digital publishing, where media organizations are increasingly investing in real-time content delivery, audience engagement tools, and workflow automation to support sustainable digital growth.
Arc XP currently supports more than 2,500 sites globally and powers billions of pageviews each month, while Tickaroo serves over 450 newsrooms worldwide with live blogging and event coverage solutions.
As publishers continue adapting to evolving audience consumption habits, integrated live coverage platforms are becoming a key component of digital media and newsroom engagement strategies.
