ASX Services

Academic Stack X (ASX) provides a complete suite of services designed for the entire Open Access (OA) journal publishing lifecycle — from creation and submission to peer review, production, and long-term archiving.
Built by a team of publishing and technology experts, ASX simplifies every stage of scholarly publishing so that editors and researchers can focus on science, not systems.

1. Journal Creation & Setup

Start your journal in minutes with ASX Cloud.
Easily configure your title, logo, and layout; assign editors; and go live instantly on a secure, cloud-hosted platform.
Each journal runs under its own subdomain (e.g. yourjournal.asx.pub) with automatic HTTPS and optional custom-domain binding through Cloudflare.

2. Submission & Peer Review

ASX offers a fully integrated editorial system that supports single-blind, double-blind, and open-review workflows.
Editors can invite reviewers, track responses, request revisions, and make final decisions in a clean, modern interface — all while maintaining transparency and traceability throughout the review cycle.
