Write and collaborate

Implemented

Collaborative manuscript editor

Structured ProseMirror documents, Yjs collaboration, presence and collaboration-aware undo.

LaTeX/MathML equations, theorems, proofs, callouts, symbols and footnotes.

Implemented

Tables, figures and cross-references

Component editing, captions, credits, alt text, numbering profiles and cross-reference tools.

Configuration required

Find, replace and proofing

In-document search, spellchecking and grammar tooling. External proofing services require configuration.

Metadata styles and templates

Server-resolved publication and article-type templates, numbering and equation-output settings.

Qualification pending

Issue and edition collation

Sequencing and collation configuration exist. Final combined compilation and rendered page ranges remain under qualification.

Planned

Archive export and restoration

Archive mechanisms exist; complete manifest-verified manuscript re-ingestion remains planned.

Review and route work

Implemented

Workflow and stage configuration

Configure stages, transitions, deadlines and stage-role capabilities without adding permission grants beyond the role.

Implemented

Assignments and role-scoped access

Server-enforced manuscript assignments, editor sessions and scoped role capabilities.

Qualification pending

Reviewer matching and invitations

Candidate search, purpose-bound invitation tokens and explicit acceptance. Full invited registration remains planned.

Qualification pending

Blind review and conflict evidence

Review identity policies, submitted declarations and shared-authorship evidence. Structured affiliation and recency policy need qualification.

Implemented

Custom forms with draft autosave

Published schemas, WYSIWYG answers, flexible field/option arrangements and scoped revision-safe draft autosave.

Configuration required

Decision and stage email templates

Configured templates, entry/exit intent and delivery logs. Sender/provider setup is required.

Prepare and export

Qualification pending

Manuscript ingestion

Upload/import mechanisms and progress reporting. Source-format fidelity must be qualified for the publication's samples.

Configuration required

References and citation styles

Reference parsing, DOI/arXiv lookup, citeproc styling and citation quick-fix rules.

Qualification pending

JATS, BITS and Elsevier XML

Semantic manuscript export and validation mechanisms; full publisher/schema fidelity still requires qualification.

Qualification pending

EPUB and validation

Semantic EPUB packaging and EPUBCheck evidence. Reader accessibility and publication-specific output need qualification.

Qualification pending

TeXLive compilation and PDF checks

Configured remote compile, template, preflight, SyncTeX and PDF validation integrations. Worker PDF/DOCX fidelity remains a release gate.

Configuration required

Approved discovery metadata

Published-only repository projections and OAI mechanisms. Repository identity and downstream canonical URLs require approval.

Operate the workspace

Implemented

Planned

Held-stage notification release

The stage setting exists; holding and releasing comment notifications at completion is not yet wired end to end.

Configuration required

Audit, health and retention controls

Audit evidence, worker monitoring and preservation-first retention settings. Operational restore and retention policies need approval.

Qualification pending

Partner API administration

Scoped API keys, documentation and usage controls. Per-consumer release acceptance remains necessary.

Responsive themed interfaces

Phone-friendly non-editor pages, light/dark mode, color/style/font choices and localization.

Public website and research accounts

Implemented

Super-admin website CMS

WYSIWYG homepage, static pages, blog, FAQ and testimonials with private drafts and revisioned publication.

Configuration required

Notices and privacy-request tracking

Reviewed legal revisions, exact acceptance receipts and rights/grievance tracking. Content approval and fulfilment policy are separate gates.

Configuration required

AuthorHub accounts

Academic author accounts, verified sign-in and manuscript workspaces, gated by approved effective registration notices.

Planned

ORCID, DOI deposit and similarity checks

Live ORCID federation, CrossRef registration and external similarity checking are deferred, not included in the current release.

Planned

Public reader hosting and marketplace

A public article-reading/paywall site and paid marketplace are outside the current editorial/production release.

Frequently asked questions

Which publication types can I manage?

Journals, books and conferences have dedicated administration. Their containers include volumes/issues or editions/chapters, with publication-specific metadata.

Can I use the platform on a phone?

Public pages, dashboards and settings are responsive. The collaborative manuscript editor requires a tablet or desktop screen.

Are all exports and integrations ready for production?

No. Configured services and output formats must be qualified with your publication's content. Combined collation, worker PDF/DOCX fidelity and several external integrations remain release gates or planned work.

How are incomplete custom-form answers saved?

Scoped forms save draft answers after inactivity and during long editing sessions. A saved draft is not a submitted form and does not complete a workflow stage.

How do I exercise privacy rights?

Use the published privacy notice and grievance information for your workspace. Signed-in users can record a rights or grievance request; this is tracking, not automatic export or erasure.

Open privacy requests

Are client logos and testimonials verified?

Only operator-approved references and quotations should be published. No customer names, endorsements, performance metrics or prices are generated automatically.
