Your manuscript and language

Word import runs in your browser. Local drafts stay on this origin. Cloud saving and export require sign-in through Stoodia.org. Interface language does not translate your manuscript or change the selected journal's requirements.

Optional external services

AI tools require your confirmation before sending selected text or figure labels to OpenAI. DOI lookup and journal search use Crossref. Review the displayed data before sending.
