ABSTRACT
Impactstory is a non-profit dedicated to making scholarly research more open, accessible, and reusable. It offers free services including Unpaywall, Impactstory Profiles, and Depsy. The company is based in Vancouver, Canada. Its mission is to change the focus of the scholarly reward system to value and encourage web-native scholarship. The organisation receives or has received grant funding from The Open Society Foundation, The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, The National Science Foundation (NSF), Clarivate Analytics, and Arcadia. Aside from this, Impactstory earns income from selling the Unpaywall Data Feed to 12 high-profile customers and from a smaller subcontracting grant with the University of Texas at Austin.
