Vendors and Service Providers
By connecting your services to the ORCID Registry, you can increase the value you provide to the scholarly community with authoritative, high-quality profile data, and join our ecosystem of over 5,000 ORCID-integrated systems.
Is your organization benefiting from ORCID yet?
By integrating your systems with the ORCID Registry, you’ll be able to:
- increase the ROI of your platform and create better insights for the organizations you work with from more comprehensive, quality data, while improving efficiency and saving time through automation
- improve the visibility and discoverability of your service by adding links from ORCID records, and connecting your own researcher profiles to ORCID’s openly-accessible data
- save everyone time and reduce input errors when filling out forms, such as grant applications, or manuscript submissions
- create a broader view of a researcher, institution, or funder’s contributions by including activities beyond publications such as affiliations, datasets, peer reviews, grants, and patents,
- resolve metadata and name discrepancies between different datasets.
Integrating your systems is easier than you think! Compare access levels below.
