For years, academic publishing has relied on legacy systems that hinder efficiency and scholarly communication. Complex interfaces frustrate users. Rigid, one-size-fits-all submission systems cannot accommodate diverse content, workflows, or journal requirements. Email-driven communications cause delays. Production remains siloed externally without automation. Monolithic architectures hamper scalability.
At Coko, we believe it's time to move forward. Driven by a passion for improving research sharing, we developed Kotahi to tackle these systemic challenges. Funded through our surplus and partners like eLife who share our vision, Kotahi is designed to modernize workflows for traditional and emerging publishing models.

Initially funded through our surplus and later with help by partners like eLife who share our vision, Kotahi is designed to modernize workflows for traditional and emerging publishing models.
Today represents the release of a key milestone for the project - [Kotahi 2.0](https://kotahi.community/releases/).
