We've been getting asked more and more if Authorea can be used to not
only write and preprint manuscripts but as a place to publish, collect
peer reviews, and in essence, run a journal. ~The short answer
is~\textbf{yes}, we're in the process of rolling out some experimental
features to allow collections to (1) receive submissions from the
public, (2) enable editor and reviewer roles to filter submissions and
provide peer review (anonymized or not), (3) publish accepted
manuscripts alongside peer review reports (transparent peer review).

An example of such collection
is~\url{https://journal.sketchingscience.org/}

\section*{Interested in creating and running a collection on
Authorea?}

{\label{473630}}

Here's how to get started.

\begin{enumerate}
\tightlist
\item
  Create a user account on Authorea~
\item
  Create a group/collection:~\url{https://authorea.com/inst/new}
\item
  Write to us
  at~\href{mailto:hi@authorea.com}{\nolinkurl{hi@authorea.com}}~so that
  we can turn on submissions and peer review features for your
  collection
\item
  Write to us at
  \href{mailto:hi@authorea.com}{\nolinkurl{hi@authorea.com}}~if you
  would like your custom domain/URL (such
  as~\url{https://journal.sketchingscience.org/}) ~
\item
  Instruct your authors to ``submit'' to your collection/journal by
  using the Submit button.
\item
  Use the peer review module features to screen submissions and publish
  approved manuscripts in your collection with a DOI!
\end{enumerate}

\textbf{Note}: some of these features are paid features.
