Silverchair is an independent technology company that partners with scholarly and professional publishers to help them deliver research to the world. We provide the platforms and services that publishers rely on across the research lifecycle — from manuscript submission and peer review through content hosting and discovery.
We’ve been doing this since 1993. We’re not owned by a publisher, an aggregator, or a data company with competing interests, which means our business succeeds when our clients succeed. Today we serve 700+ publishers, societies, and university presses — from small independent organizations to some of the largest scholarly publishers in the world.
Our flagship hosting and content delivery platform, delivering journals, books, and more to researchers across the world. It’s flexible by design: publishers can configure the content architecture, user experience, and third-party integrations to fit their needs, not the other way around.
The proven peer review and manuscript management systems. ScholarOne Manuscripts supports submission and editorial workflows for 10k+ journals, with sophisticated integrity tools; ScholarOne Conferences streamlines abstract and session management for events.

Our dedicated innovation space for developing and deploying AI-powered tools and products, from editorial assistance to intelligent search and MCPs. The AI Lab reflects our commitment to bringing AI to scholarly publishing responsibly and in close collaboration with our clients.
