River Valley Technologies launches RVRite 2.0

River Valley Technologies (RVT) has announced the release of RVRite 2.0, an XML-first authoring and production platform designed to unify collaborative authoring, automated XML conversion, and in-system proofing within a single environment.

Publishers and societies are under growing pressure to publish faster, reduce production costs, and strengthen research integrity, yet many workflows still rely on fragmented handoffs between submission, revision, and production. These disconnected processes can create friction for authors and editors while introducing blind spots when changes are made late in the publishing cycle.

RVRite 2.0 addresses these challenges by making structured XML the foundation of the workflow, ensuring that all outputs, including final PDFs, are generated from a single, consistent source. Every change is traceable across versions, and content is “born accessible” by default, removing the need for accessibility retrofitting at the end of production.

The platform provides a unified environment for collaborative authoring, revisions, and proofing, supports automated conversion to structured XML, and delivers consistent multi-format outputs in publishers’ bespoke styles. Integration with RVT’s research integrity tools enables continuous checks, full version history, and auditable workflows from submission through to publication.

Maryam Bazargan, CEO of River Valley Technologies, said: “RVRite 2.0 is built for publishers who want speed and scale without sacrificing integrity or control. By putting XML at the centre of authoring and production and keeping integrity checks active throughout, we are enabling a simpler, more transparent journey from submission to publication.”
