Objectives: "We founded Authorea in late 2012 with the mission of accelerating scientific discovery. We were frustrated that other writing tools didn't fully understand the needs of researchers -- especially researchers in a web-first world -- and we wondered why the internet age hadn't yet delivered a modern toolset for scientific collaboration."
