Hi! We decided to take a proper stab at this problem space and are currently at the stage where we would love some feedback from the HN community.

The best way for getting a feel for how it works is going to our demo publication and browse some articles: http://www.getexplorerr.com/

If you decide to sign up through the publication and then go back to our site, you will be automatically logged in to your profile: https://www.scriber.io

There's also a publisher dashboard you can play around with: https://www.scriber.io/publishers#demo

We've put a lot of effort into the integration with publications and making the user experience of signing up and purchasing articles as seamless as possible, upping conversion by removing as many hoops the users have to jump through as we can.

Please let us know what you think, any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Scriber's "Apply HN" application: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11544028
Thanks for providing the link to our application, I wasn't sure if it would be a faux pas to mention that in our "Show HN" as well!

I guess doing so wasn't necessary and it was probably better not to give those who would complain a toehold. Anyway, it's not like the "apply Hn" is a feature.

Congratulations on such progress.

Thanks! We're currently in early talks with a few newspapers here in London so will hopefully be seeing it in the wild soon.
