Why choose ASX ?

Academic Stack X (ASX) is more than just a publishing platform — it’s an integrated ecosystem built to empower the next generation of Open Access (OA) journals. Every feature we design, every service we deliver, and every decision we make comes from a deep understanding of how scholarly publishing truly works.

1. Purpose-Built for Open Access

ASX is not a generic CMS or blog engine. It’s designed exclusively for Open Access journals — integrating DOI registration, ORCID authentication, JATS XML/HTML production, Crossref and indexing workflows. Everything you need for compliant, professional OA publishing is built in from day one.

2. End-to-End Workflow, All in One Place

From journal creation and submission handling to peer review, editorial decisions, copyediting, and online publication, ASX covers every step. You don’t have to combine multiple systems or plugins — it’s all there, unified in a single, intuitive platform.

3. Zero Technical Barrier

No server management, no coding, no manual setup. ASX runs entirely in the cloud, with automatic HTTPS, backups, updates, and scalability. You focus on editorial work — we handle the technology.

4. Transparent and Affordable

We believe professional publishing should be accessible and sustainable. ASX provides enterprise-grade infrastructure without enterprise-level pricing, helping small publishers, institutions, and scholars operate high-quality journals at a fraction of the traditional cost.

5. Scalable Architecture

Start small, grow big. Whether you manage a single journal or a full portfolio, ASX adapts as you expand — with multi-journal dashboards, user-role management, and enterprise integration options available anytime.

6. Compliance and Integrity by Design

Built around COPE, DOAJ, and Crossref standards, ASX ensures your journals meet global publishing ethics, metadata, and archiving requirements. Every publication step is traceable, transparent, and standards-aligned.

7. Editor-Centric Experience

ASX is made for editors — not programmers. Its streamlined interface gives editors control over submissions, reviewers, and decisions while minimizing administrative burden. We call it “technology that disappears behind the process.”

8. Constant Innovation

Academic Stack X evolves with the publishing world. We continuously integrate new tools for AI-assisted review, plagiarism screening, metadata enrichment, and indexing optimization, ensuring your journal remains modern and competitive.

9. Trusted Support and Partnership

Our team brings years of experience in academic publishing, IT infrastructure, and journal management. From setup to long-term maintenance, we’re your partner — not just a platform provider.
