What we build
Software that makes trusted content work in AI.
Three products, each available on its own, built on the same principles: rights respected, sources attributed, usage measured.
Leadership
Three founders, led by someone who has run the platform.
For ten years at Atypon, and at Wiley after its acquisition, Patrick directed product for the Atypon Experience Platform, which hosts nearly half of the world’s English-language peer-reviewed journals. Before that came two decades of building and leading platform engineering.
He has chaired cross-industry work on shared standards for trust and integrity in research communication, including the revision of the Journal Article Versions recommendation (NISO JAV) and content updates (STM CUSAP).
That experience is what Razeta, Research Connect and Scholar Core are built on.
