About the offering
Abstract Tube is similar to 'YouTube', but focused at academic videos only. Abstract Tube Inc. is primarily a software and services company which works as an online platform to upload and publish academic videos. What makes us unique is that there are no other dedicated video portals (that we know of) in the market which offer video hosting for academic abstracts such as journal articles, conference papers, thesis and dissertation abstracts. We are also unaware of any project-summary-as-abstract video services (or academic work publications that offer short and concise video formats). Therefore, a dedicated video portal for this purpose was much needed, and thus Abstract Tube Inc. was born. Studies have found that scientific video abstracts engage people more. Scientific journals are encouraging authors to provide video abstracts. Abstract Tube Inc. is going to be the next generation search engine for abstract videos from journal articles, conference papers, theses and dissertations. We are planning to collaborate with journal publishers, universities and even scientific conference events. Soon, we will start offering services for video production, script writing, background music creation and others. We have not identified any direct competitors yet in terms of a dedicated video portal for academic abstract videos. But there are some service providers who help with abstract video creation (e.g. American Journal Experts, ChemistryViews, Research Square - Wiley).
