<p><a href="https://kotahi.community">Kotahi</a> (a <a href="https://coko.foundation">Coko Community product</a>) is an <b>open source</b> modern scholarly publishing platform which has received support from many partners including McGill Healthy Brains for Healthy Lives NeuroHub project and eLife. Kotahi is now in production for eLife for publishing reviews, and is supported by a wide group of interesting partners like <a href="https://www.eko-konnect.org.ng/">Eko-Konnect</a>, <a href="https://enableoa.amnet.com/">Amnet Systems</a>, and <a href="https://cloud68.co/">Cloud68</a>. We hope that Kotahi will become a hub where hybrid research objects can easily be submitted from “web labs.” </p>
<p>Kotahi solves many of our current publishing platform limitations and we are really excited about its features. Like Aperture, a community driven open access publishing platform, Kotahi is also community driven. </p>
