You can choose to add the following services for an increased annual fee:
- Training
- Custom feature development

Already using OPS or another platform?
If you already use OPS, we provide complete support for migrating your preprint server to our hosting platform. The migration fee of $1,100 per installation ensures that your system is transferred securely and completely, and any outstanding issues are resolved.
If you use OSF Preprints, the Centre for Open Science’s preprint service, we can migrate your content to OPS with our custom import tool.
If you’re publishing on another software application or platform, our team may be able to migrate your posted preprints into OPS with an automated import tool. Structured metadata in a predefined CSV or XML format (i.e., title, abstract, authors, etc.) is required for all content.
