Product · Institutional Repository
Digitise, archive and preserve your institution's research output.
A centralised platform to store, manage and share academic documents — with the
discovery tools researchers actually want to use.
Features
A world-class repository,
without the vendor lock-in.
Built specifically for higher institutions: rich metadata, granular access controls, in-browser reading, and analytics that tell you what matters.
Document archiving
Securely store theses, dissertations, research papers and institutional
publications in one centralised digital archive.
Metadata cataloging
Tag and categorise works with rich metadata — fields, subfields, authors,
abstracts, keywords — for genuinely useful discovery.
Access control
Control who can view, download or purchase each document. Set works as public,
members-only, or paid access.
Search & discovery
Powerful search across your entire repository, with filters by field, author,
year and document type.
Usage analytics
Track views, downloads, and engagement across your repository. Understand
which content resonates with your community.
Document conversion
Uploaded documents are automatically converted for online reading — content is
accessible directly in the browser, no downloads required.
