Platform
Everything for research project management
Tracker-first — collaborate when you need to, not instead of knowing where your papers stand.
Project tracker
One workspace for papers, lab teams, and grants — pipeline stages, team workflows, journal log, deadlines, and visibility without another spreadsheet.
Discover & apply
When you need help, post open stages on Discover. Browse projects in your field and apply to specific contribution roles.
Authorship by ORCID
Roster co-authors early, confirm consent, and track CRediT roles — before submission politics start.
Funding radar
Grant calls, conferences, and deadlines filtered for your field — alongside your project tracker, not in a separate tab hoard.
Journal finder
Search Scopus-indexed journals for your target field — tied to each paper workspace. CiteScore and publication insights are included with Plus.

From researchers
Built for how labs actually work
“Especially useful for early career researchers — it gives you structure when you are juggling your first papers, teaching, and grant deadlines all at once.”
Ms Jiajia Lee
Lecturer · Monash University
“I see real potential here for how we organise research in the faculty — clear stages, fewer things lost in email threads.”
Mr Ali Haider
Lecturer · Monash University
“Useful for managing PhD students and research assistants — I can see where each project stands without chasing everyone for updates.”
