About Journal Nexus
The parent brand behind JMSNexus, ManuscriptFlow, and a 10-year consulting practice that takes journals from idea to indexed publication.
A Publishing Ecosystem — Not Just a Consultancy
Journal Nexus started a decade ago as a consultancy helping universities, publishers, and individual editors launch credible academic journals. Today, it’s a complete publishing ecosystem — a consulting practice, a production studio, and the parent brand behind two software products we built ourselves: JMSNexus (a cloud journal hosting & publishing platform) and ManuscriptFlow (a peer review & manuscript management system).
That combination is rare. Most agencies stop at consulting and rent someone else’s software. We use our own platforms to run the journals we manage — which means we can fix the workflow, the infrastructure, and the process all at once. For our clients, that means fewer vendors, faster decisions, and a partner that actually owns the outcome.
Whether you’re a university looking to launch a new journal, a publisher scaling a portfolio, or an individual editor starting from zero — we cover the full path: strategy, branding, OJS or JMSNexus deployment, peer review setup, typesetting, JATS XML production, DOI registration, and indexing applications for Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed/MEDLINE, DOAJ, and other reputed databases.
