    Each group on Sciety has a PReF table that describes their review process. This article details the features of preprint peer review and how they may differ from traditional peer review.

    An outline of how our friends at EuropePMC index preprints and their evaluation activity, which includes reviews from Sciety groups provided via Docmaps. The data shows "As of 4 April 2024 there are 12,209 reviewed preprints in Europe PMC", whereas on Sciety this number is 33,046 evaluated preprints. They cite challenges of; "Distributed access points, Limited metadata, Divergence of practices and standards, Lack of machine-readable status updates" all of which resonate with the work on Sciety and by working together as part of a Preprint Review Metadata working group, we can go some way to overcoming these.

    This paper adds to evidence supporting publishing results early through preprinting and dispelling concerns about reliability compared to what are traditionally called "published" papers. The article activity on Sciety shows the versions published to Research Square and to the journal. From the discussion of the paper: "Overall, articles submitted to preprint servers by researchers, especially on COVID-19, are largely complete versions of similar quality to published papers and can be expected to change little during peer review. "
