Current store options

Important notice about plan names

The current official ReadCube page uses the names Essentials and Plus, and explains that Plus was formerly called Papers Pro. The store options 'Standard' and 'Professional' do not clearly specify a current entitlement. Before making the product available again, each option must be matched to the official plan name, collaboration, AI, and storage limits, and how the subscription is linked to the customer's account.

What does the subscription not include?

Reference management does not automatically grant access to all paid articles; downloading full text depends on copyright, university or institutional subscriptions, or open access. AI features also have usage limits according to the plan and may change over time.

Frequently asked questions

Can it be used to write a reference list?

Yes. It provides citation tools, but the style and fields must be reviewed before academic submission.

Does the library remain after the subscription expires?

ReadCube states that the library can be accessed and exported after subscription expiry, with differences in paid features.
