Ed­it­Flow is a soft­ware ser­vice for man­aging the sub­mis­sion and peer-re­view work­flows of re­search journ­als — a power­ful and in­tu­it­ive web ap­plic­a­tion, backed by our prompt cus­tom­er ser­vice. It auto­mates the routine as­pects of pub­lish­ing, of­fers a stream­lined and dir­ect in­ter­face, and saves you time and en­ergy.

Ed­it­Flow is ideal for journ­als with col­lab­or­at­ive de­cision-mak­ing — it presents a bird’s-eye view of the journ­al’s whole pipeline, then quickly gets out of your way so you can dig in and do your work ef­fi­ciently.

We’re also proud of the qual­ity of our prompt and com­pet­ent cus­tom­er sup­port: we’re an email away from users, ready to provide help, im­ple­ment cus­tom­iz­a­tions, or guide you by screen-shar­ing and video-chat.

Ed­it­Flow was first de­veloped by listen­ing dir­ectly to the ed­it­ors of our own pub­lic­a­tions, then by ad­apt­ing to its grow­ing user-base.

Ed­it­Flow is the ser­vice used by our pub­lic­a­tions and, among oth­ers, by the journ­als of the Amer­ic­an Math­em­at­ic­al So­ci­ety, the Lon­don Math­em­at­ic­al So­ci­ety, and the Ca­na­dian Math­em­at­ic­al So­ci­ety.

“When we took over as ed­it­ors-in-chief of the Ca­na­dian Journ­al of Math­em­at­ics, we con­sidered and test-drove sev­er­al ed­it­or­i­al sys­tems be­fore set­tling on Ed­it­Flow. We have been very happy with the choice we made. We find that the sys­tem is in­deed easy to use, mes­sages can be eas­ily cus­tom­ized, an ex­cel­lent data­base of po­ten­tial ref­er­ees makes the ref­er­ee re­quests an easy task, and the ter­rif­ic sup­port staff al­low us to troubleshoot any is­sue that arises, usu­ally with­in hours.”

Switch­ing to new soft­ware can be in­tim­id­at­ing. That’s why we’re with you and your users every step of the way, with quick hands-on sup­port via email or video-chat.

Also, when Ed­it­Flow man­ages your journ­al, we don’t hold your data host­age. While we do se­curely store all journ­al re­cords, you are the own­er of your data and can even store backups on your own serv­ers. This makes it easi­er for you to take your journ­al his­tory with you if you ever de­cide to leave Ed­it­Flow, but we’re con­fid­ent you won’t want to. In fact, no journ­al who star­ted us­ing Ed­it­Flow has ever switched away.

To stream­line the ad­min­is­tra­tion of your journ­al’s peer re­view by us­ing Ed­it­Flow, we charge a one-time ini­tial setup fee, and then a fixed an­nu­al sub­scrip­tion fee, which usu­ally ranges between a couple and sev­er­al thou­sand dol­lars.

We think of Ed­it­Flow as a ser­vice, con­sist­ing mainly of the soft­ware ap­plic­a­tion that we serve over the in­ter­net, but also our cur­ated data­base of math­em­aticians, as well as on­go­ing sup­port from our very re­spons­ive staff. We’re happy to an­swer ques­tions, of­fer help and guid­ance, per­form ac­tions or undo them on be­half of ed­it­ors, modi­fy con­fig­ur­a­tions and tem­plates, etc. — all in­cluded in the Ed­it­Flow sub­scrip­tion price.

The ex­act sub­scrip­tion fee de­pends on the size of the journ­al. The ex­act setup fee de­pends on how com­plic­ated or non­stand­ard your journ­al’s work­flow is.
