Custom Pub Types, Backed by Schemas
Create content that exactly fits the needs of your community. You can define your own types — from journal articles to book chapters to reports and beyond — and back every field with a JSON schema so your content stays consistent and conforms to standards from input to output.
Simple, Dynamic Forms
Pre-defined Pub types make building forms for submitters, reviewers, and editors a breeze. Add text, customize your field inputs, define your post-submission behavior, and you're done.
Flexible Workflows, Programmable With Powerful Actions
Support submissions, traditional peer review, preprint review, legal review, copyediting, and much more with ease by defining your ideal workflow stages and adding actions to integrate with other services and automate tedious processes.
Design And Host Exactly How And Where You Want
Rather than a one-size-fits all approach to design, PubPub Platform exposes APIs that allow you to host your content anywhere. Customize our off-the-shelf static site builder, work with us to bring your front-end to life, or bring your own designers and developers to integrate with your existing content management system.
Fully Open, Forever
PubPub Platform is built to be fully open-source with no proprietary dependencies — from the fonts on up. We are committed to providing self-hosting and on-prem options, both because it’s the right thing to do and supporting them is part of our sustainability model.
