Welcome

PaperFox is an AI-first conference management platform that streamlines the entire lifecycle of an academic conference — from site setup, submissions, and peer review through decisions, registration, and the final program.

Fastest way to find an answer: Ask AI

Click the Ask AI button in the bottom-right corner of any docs page and ask in plain language — for example, "How do I invite reviewers?" or "Can authors edit a submission after the deadline?". It answers from the latest documentation and links to the relevant pages. Sign in with your PaperFox account to start asking.
