"Editors are being asked to do more with the same — or fewer — resources, and that strain shows up everywhere from manuscript triage to reviewer communication," said Will Schweitzer, CEO. "We're tackling that from two directions at once. Editor Gateway modernizes the foundation every editor works from, and it's freely available to every ScholarOne client. Editor AI Console builds on that foundation with optional, configurable AI support for publishers who want it. Neither replaces editorial judgment — both are built to support it."
ScholarOne Editor Gateway
Building on the success of the author functionality in ScholarOne Gateway, new editor interfaces transform the editor experience into a modern, intuitive workflow, surfacing the information editors need at the point they need it. Comprehensive dashboards give editors clear visibility into manuscript status, reviewer activity, and outstanding tasks. As Editor Gateway continues to expand, it will become easier for editors to identify reviewers, monitor reviewer performance, and access the tools and resources that streamline day-to-day editorial work.Editor Gateway is included for all ScholarOne Manuscripts clients at no additional cost, reflecting Silverchair's commitment to raising the baseline experience for the entire ScholarOne community. Editors will now enjoy the same benefits that the author community have experienced with ScholarOne Gateway, which was recognized with the 2026 Gold EPIC Award for Submission System Features.
ScholarOne Editor AI Console
For publishers looking to bring added efficiency into their editorial workflow, Editor AI Console offers an added layer of AI-powered manuscript analysis, available as an optional extension to ScholarOne Manuscripts. Working directly within the manuscript details page, editors get AI-generated insights into manuscript quality without leaving ScholarOne or adopting a separate system — tailored summaries of methodology, ethical considerations, and publication readiness that reflect what matters most to their editorial community.Editor AI Console was built around a core principle: editors and publishers should understand and direct how AI supports their work. Editors maintain full visibility into and control over the prompts driving the analysis, with the ability to customize and refine them as their journal's or discipline's standards evolve. Built on leading foundational LLM capabilities, the tool is designed to keep pace with the rapid advancement of AI while remaining grounded in real editorial practice, supporting the manuscript screening stage as one in a series of focused, purpose-built modules rather than as a monolithic assessment engine.
Two Investments, One Goal
While Editor Gateway and Editor AI Console serve different needs, both reflect the same underlying goal: giving editors more time and clarity to focus on what matters most — identifying and developing the research that defines their journals. Publishers can adopt Editor Gateway's improvements at no cost as part of their existing ScholarOne relationship and can choose to layer in Editor AI Console where added AI-powered support makes sense for their editorial teams.###
