In a nutshell

Qeios is a multidisciplinary open-access, open peer review, scientific publishing platform for preprints and final articles. Publishing is free, and it has no editors.

Reviewers alone decide on the validity of the papers, and publicly communicate with the authors with no intermediary. Reviews are posted alongside the articles and get citable DOIs, boosting reviewers’ visibility among other things.

Most importantly, since Qeios has no editors, peer feedback is exclusively meant to provide authors with suggestions to improve their papers, and to inform readers of their validity.

Goals and intentions

To create a more open, collaborative, fast, affordable, and, overall, trustable environment for science. To obtain this, the peer review process, while keeping its vital role, needs to be reimagined.
