The straightforward OSF Registries submission interface guides you through an easy workflow. Simply enter your responses to the questions, upload any relevant files, and then your responses, files, and metadata are archived into a timestamped, immutable registration. OSF Registries offers various registration templates, enabling researchers to register according to their discipline, study design, or stage in research.
These registration templates include preregistration, the act of registering a research plan before a study is conducted. Preregistration increases transparency and improves the quality of research through better planning and by drawing clearer distinctions between confirmed findings and unexpected discoveries. Learn more about the benefits of preregistration and its long-term yields at cos.io/prereg.
Create findable resources with DOIs and rich metadata fields. OSF Registrations ensure research is shared FAIRly, and assists with open policy compliance.
Make studies public immediately or set an embargo for up to 4 years
Manage your research after preregistering. Upload data, code, and other materials related to your work, then share your preprint when you’ve finished. Learn more about managing your workflow with osf.io and OSF Preprints.
Give your team access when and how they need it. Flexible permissions allow contributor participation across multiple project levels.
Track outputs and provide an interface where your researchers can quickly adopt the rigorous workflows required by your open policies.
Provide a branded repository for exploring open data, preregistrations, and other transparent materials in your field.
