How it works
The platform combines a document editor with version control and commenting, so co-authors can work on the same manuscript without emailing drafts back and forth. It also supports preprints and open research sharing.
Authorea was acquired by Wiley and now sits within a larger publishing ecosystem, which gives it stability but also means its future is tied to one publisher. For research teams that write together often, it remains a practical, free-to-start option.
