In an interview with the newspaper, CEO Viktor Linnell promises "quality content," but does not rule out AI tools.

We have nothing against technology. What is important to us is to use it in a way that ensures we maintain quality and excellence.

In 2025, Camilla Läckberg bought the rights to Pelle Svanslös and wrote two new books about the cat. Now she is no longer one of the rights holders - but Linnell does not want to comment on which authors and illustrators will continue the legacy.

CoStudios also has the rights to, among others, Inger and Lasse Sandberg's children's characters.
