Now Live: The Refreshed OSF Interface

Written by Center for Open Science | Oct 14, 2025 5:40:46 PM

The Open Science Framework (OSF) now features an updated interface designed to make managing research projects easier, faster, and more intuitive.

Streamlined and Researcher-Informed

Developed in response to community feedback, the refreshed design improves navigation, overall platform performance, and file access—while keeping familiar workflows intact.

Supporting the Full Research Lifecycle

OSF provides a centralized platform to plan, organize, report, share, and discover research at every stage. Public projects link outputs, resources, and activities to support collaboration and discovery, and integrations with popular tools like Dropbox and GitHub help connect the full research workflow.

Guidance at Every Step

To align with the refreshed interface, OSF help guides have been updated and consolidated to make finding information and guidance easier.
