For publishers

Publishing should belong to publishers

Don’t let vendors dictate your author experience. Or trap the integrations you need in roadmap purgatory.

Reclaim control over the user journeys, workflows, and tech investments that define how authors publish with you.

Publishing doesn’t need more walled gardens

Everywhere you look, technologies are emerging that promise great things for scholarly publishing: rock-solid submission safeguards; an end to crushing editorial admin; more intuitive author journeys.

Yet many vendors are responding by locking innovations in closed ecosystems.

We believe that’s the wrong path to take. From peer review to citation record, research has always advanced through openness.

That’s why we built ChronosHub to strengthen publishers’ autonomy, not diminish it. So you can access the best tools out there, while staying free to adapt as the industry evolves.
