Workflow

1. Prepare: Share the paper with collaborators through a private link and review its open timing. Researchers and educators can share with collaborators ahead of a deadline.
2. Control access: Upload the PDF, create a private link, choose download access, and keep the option to revoke the link.
3. Share: Send the private link to the intended academia audience.
4. Review delivery signals: Review the open time, approximate location and network organization when available, device and browser categories, and active dwell time. An open does not establish identity, comprehension, or intent.
