Trusted by leading publishers






























Hum builds AI solutions that help STM publishers triage manuscripts faster, identify their most valuable audiences, and turn content into a growth engine — without adding headcount.

~30% of submissions don't belong in your journals.
Your editors are spending hours finding out which ones.
Submission volumes are up. AI-generated manuscripts are flooding inboxes. Editorial time is finite.
When editors spend their first hours on papers that were never going to make it past triage, the whole pipeline slows down — and the manuscripts that matter wait longer.

You have millions of
readers.
But you don't know who they are or how to reach them.
Publishers invest heavily in content but have little visibility into who's actually engaging with it.
Calls for papers go to the wrong people. Newsletters reach passive subscribers. Events do or don't fill up based on guesswork. The researchers who should be submitting to your journals don't know you exist.
MEET ALCHEMIST
AI built for modern publishers
Hum's Alchemist platform addresses both sides of the publisher growth problem — editorial efficiency and audience intelligence — in a single, integrated system built on your content and your taxonomy.

Your researcher audience, identified and activated.
Turn anonymous site traffic into named researcher profiles, and reach them with precision. Target calls for papers, event invitations, newsletter campaigns, and author recruitment to the right person, at the right time.

The semantic layer that makes everything else smarter.
Build a custom AI taxonomy in weeks, not months — and maintain it automatically as your content evolves. Taxonomy powers better content discovery, more precise audience segmentation, and smarter manuscript routing.
