by | Aug 25, 2026 | News

Pan Macmillan to publish AI-assisted business titlewanted to turn his existing body of economic analysis into a book but “would never have had the time to write” it. Harriman House therefore worked with sister company CHAPTR to develop Weave, a secure proprietary AI application grounded on Pal’s archive of previously published material, speeches, intellectual property and analytical frameworks.

 Pan Macmillan business books imprint Harriman House will publish what it says is a trade publishing first with The Everything Code, a new book by macro analyst and entrepreneur Raoul Pal that has been produced using a proprietary AI tool trained exclusively on the author’s own existing work.

 The Bookseller reports that the publisher describes the title as “human-originated, AI-facilitated”.  The  publisher acquired rights directly from Pal, with publication planned worldwide in paperback, audio and e-book in November 2026.

 Pal said he wanted to turn his existing body of economic analysis into a book but “would never have had the time to write” it. Harriman House therefore worked with sister company CHAPTR to develop Weave, a secure proprietary AI application grounded on Pal’s archive of previously published material, speeches, intellectual property and analytical frameworks.

 The move could well be the first of many.
