OSF — Open Science Framework

Overview

OSF (Open Science Framework) is a free, open-source research workflow platform operated by COS. It supports the full research lifecycle: pre-registration via OSF Registries, where study designs and hypotheses are committed before data collection; data, materials, and code sharing via project repositories; team collaboration; and preprints via OSF Preprints, which aggregates discipline-specific communities including PsyArXiv and SocArXiv. Widely used in psychology and cognitive neuroscience, OSF integrates with external repositories including Zenodo and tools in the ReproNim ecosystem.
