Scholastica is an online publishing platform and peer review management system for academic journals. It was established in 2011, and left the beta stage in early 2012. It was founded by Rob Walsh, a former editorial assistant at one of Johns Hopkins University Press's journals, Cory Schires, and Brian Cody, a former sociology PhD student who serves as the company's CEO. Walsh, Schires, and Cody are all former graduate students at the University of Chicago.[1] By mid-2013, it was working with over 60 academic journals,[2] a number that had risen to over 600 by February 2018.[3] In 2015, Scholastica attracted attention when Timothy Gowers launched Discrete Analysis using its software.[4]
