About us

Science moves at the speed of publication.

So we're making publication faster. Weave is the manuscript development platform for neuroscience, from the teams behind Scribendi and Edanz. We've spent decades helping researchers get published. Now we're building what we've learned into software, with our editors and scientists still one click away.

Neuroscience advisory board

Three practising neuroscientists keep Weave grounded in how research actually gets published. Between them they run labs, work at the bench, review for leading journals, and sit on editorial boards. They guide what Weave checks, surfaces, and recommends.
