What these numbers mean

Since beginning operations in early 2025, the Continuity Program has received 89 manuscript submissions from researchers spanning multiple disciplines and institutions worldwide. Of these, 58 authors — 65% of all submitters — chose the Royalty Plan, electing to monetize their work and earn from every future access purchase. The remaining 31 manuscripts were submitted under Open Access, contributing freely to the global knowledge base.

STEM fields dominate the current submission pool, reflecting the research output of the program's early adopter community. Submissions span research articles, theses, dissertations, and review papers — demonstrating the breadth of academic work the Continuity Model is designed to serve.

The trajectory is clear.

Submission volume has grown consistently since the program launched, with October 2025 and February 2026 representing the strongest months to date. The upward trend reflects increasing awareness of the Continuity Model among research communities — and the growing recognition that academic work deserves both an audience and a return.

Every manuscript submitted under the Royalty Plan is a step toward a more equitable academic ecosystem — one where the cost of accessing knowledge is minimised and the reward for creating it is maximised. The next submission could be yours.
