5. Structured HTML Documents to power the preprint repository of the future
The arXiv is a preprint repository. Authorea, in contrast, is a social, open science platform. It provides scholars with a profile page, including bios and statistics. Institutions also have dedicated pages and collaboration statistics. Authors can keep track of their academic connections and discover new content. Authorea is the place where the next generation of research will be created, shared, and reviewed. Additionally, the fact that Authorea articles have a well-defined semantic structure will allow them to be fully machine-readable objects. Articles will become an API with which you can interact.
