5- Authorea is natively built on Git. Our Git back-end has two major advantages: 1) All changes made to Authorea documents are tracked by Git i.e. one of the most robust version control systems. No longer will you need to track changes in Word. Version history of any document is integrated within the document itself. 2) Since every document in Authorea is a Git repository, you can include more than just text and images: data, code, videos, data visualizations, notebooks, workflows.

6- A data-driven, media-rich platform. Authorea allows to integrate data, code and all the material needed to reproduce scientific results. This enables transparency and reproducibility, the very foundations of the scientific method. Authorea can allow the long-awaited leap that will push the scientific paper in the 21st century.
