Cactus Communications
Scholarcy's mission is to help researchers and students become more productive 
at every stage of their work – from reviewing the literature, to authoring and 
publishing. Scholarcy's knowledge compression engine generates succinct 
summaries, surfaces the most important findings, explains key concepts, and 
connects the researcher to every cited source in a paper.

"Since our launch last year, Scholarcy has been helping the global research 
community keep on top of the unprecedented growth of published work with 
technology that cuts down reading time and automatically surfaces related 
research", said Phil Gooch, Founder and CEO. "The ability of our technology to 
create machine-readable, structured data from any document also helps authors 
and publishers make their content more discoverable and reach wider audiences. 
We're delighted by the opportunity that partnering with Cactus Communications 
gives us to substantially improve research communication for its wide base of 
researchers, and beyond."

Founded in 2002, CACTUS has collaborated with more than 362,000 researchers 
globally to help them publish more than 1 million research papers. While its 
flagship arm Editage offers a raft of products and services across the stages 
of manuscript reporting all the way through to publication, its newest unit 
Impact Science focuses on research communication to drive impact beyond journal 
publication. 

"More than 8000 journal articles are published every day, and arguably a lot 
more would be written every day. We are interested in improving researchers' 
productivity that frees up their time to do research, something they are best 
trained to do. In Scholarcy we see a fantastic partner that is doing some 
working on innovations at the same end," said, Abhishek Goel, CEO and 
Co-founder, Cactus Communication, while commenting on the partnership.

CACTUS is committed to improve and empower the global scholarly communication 
process and the partnership with Scholarcy is the first of many such 
initiatives that CACTUS will undertake.
