Request a free trial and we will provide you with a Carina configuration that captures the most important tasks in your workflow – for example, new or revised submissions, reviewer selection, production checklists, the task list is entirely up to you.

We know... it barely bears thinking about. But have you started planning for 2027 yet? The organisations that achieve the biggest operational improvements aren't waiting until January—they're identifying opportunities now.

Are you making decisions based on facts, or assumptions? The Carina Workflow Intelligence Platform gives you the visibility you need to truly understand your workflow processes.

It's Monday. A new week means new submissions, new reviewers, new deadlines... and a new opportunity to work smarter. If your team is spending hours on manual follow-ups, status checks and routine admin, it's time to improve your workflow.

Coping? Just getting by? It's not good enough. If your editorial team is constantly firefighting, chasing deadlines, or relying on manual workarounds just to keep up, you're surviving—not improving. The most successful publishing teams aren't the ones working the hardest.

How well do you understand the work your team is actually doing? Which tasks are duplicated? Which ones take longer than expected? And what activities are slipping through the cracks altogether?

Shorter week ahead? Deadlines still piling up? If only there was a way to stay ahead without adding more pressure to your team. Hang on a minute... there is.

Workflow Assist is designed to help teams work faster, smarter, and with greater accuracy. Reduce time spent checking submissions by up to 50% with fully scripted processing that ensures no step is missed.

Task management isn’t about Big Brother. It’s about clarity. Knowing who is handling what! Identifying what’s being missed! Avoiding duplicated effort! Keeping teams aligned and workflows moving.

If you work in publishing, it’s time we connected. I am always keen to build meaningful connections across the industry — from editorial and production to peer review and workflow specialists.

Submissions increasing? Is your team keeping up, or is your workflow holding them back? More content should mean more opportunity, not more pressure. But without the right systems in place, even the strongest teams can struggle to stay on top of growing demand.

Monday again. Still struggling with the same workflow issues, delays, or bottlenecks? The question is why. These challenges rarely fix themselves and they usually cost more time the longer they are left.

We know workflow like the back of our hand. What works. What doesn’t. We’ve seen it all — and we know how to fix it. With Carina, we don’t just look at your peer review process… we understand it.

The new UK tax year has just begun. Your budget’s been set. Wasn’t quite what you were hoping for. When funding is tight, transformation doesn’t have to mean a complete overhaul. Small, targeted improvements to your peer review workflow can deliver meaningful gains — without stretching resources.

Workflow has evolved. Have you? Manual steps. Bottlenecks. Workarounds. They slow teams down and hide opportunities to do better. At Task Adept, we help you rethink the way work flows — simplifying processes, reducing friction, and giving your team time back.

The Carina Workflow Intelligence platform provides new insight into digital workflow processes with particular emphasis on peer-review and journal production workflows. Carina works with your existing web applications to gather all the information you need to make evidence-based decisions.

We automate your existing submission workflow software, so no need to buy new! Win:Win.

Think of peer review workflow like driving. You have a destination — a clear editorial decision. But along the way there are delays, roadblocks, and unexpected detours. Manuscripts stall, reviewers decline, and bottlenecks appear where you least expect them.

Work smarter with Carina and capture process data from start to finish. At every point your team touches a workflow task Carina provides a complete picture of the work carried out. Even if you use multiple packages to manage your workflow! #understand #data #workflow #staffing

Bottlenecks! What makes your job harder? What would you change? #peerreview #publishing #workflow #efficiency #CarinaWorks

The future of workflow is already taking shape — the question is, are you part of it? At Carina, we help #publishing and #peerreview teams move beyond reactive processes and into intelligent, future-ready workflows.

At every touchpoint in your workflow, Carina delivers a complete, transparent view of the work being carried out. Even when multiple systems are in play, Carina connects the dots — capturing your processes from start to finish and providing the clarity teams need to work smarter, not harder.

For a long time, workflow has been something teams work around rather than work with. Manual steps. Disconnected systems. Processes that rely on memory, heroics, and goodwill. It doesn’t mean teams are failing. It means the tools were never designed to support the reality of the work.

Are you budgeting for the new financial year? Now is the time to look closely at your workflows, staffing models, and editorial processes. What’s working well? Where are the bottlenecks? And where could smarter systems save time and reduce pressure on your team?

Automation isn’t about removing control — it’s about removing friction. With Carina, you can implement a fully automated solution that runs exactly as your journal policies require. No operator. No exceptions. No delays.

Chasing authors and reviewers is one of the biggest hidden costs in editorial workflows. Time is lost navigating systems, checking dates, sending emails, and logging notes. System-generated chasers are often ignored, while personalised follow-ups take 60–90 seconds per paper.

How much time does your editorial team spend chasing authors? In editorial offices everywhere, a significant amount of time is lost following up on missing revisions, unreturned proofs, and unanswered queries. But the real question isn’t just how often this happens — it’s what it’s costing you.

How much time does your organisation spend each day chasing authors and reviewers? Follow-ups, reminders, manual checks, inbox monitoring — it all adds up. Hours of valuable editorial and operational time are quietly absorbed by processes that should be working in the background.
