Pure addresses three core problems facing research institutions:
Data fragmentation: Research information is scattered across HR, finance, and publication systems, making consistent reporting time-consuming. Pure unifies this into a single source of truth — the University of Copenhagen automated their integrated national reporting, eliminating manual reconciliation and reducing errors.
Compliance complexity: Open access mandates, national assessments, and funder reporting requirements are growing in scope and frequency — Pure automates the workflows that manage these obligations, from REF submissions to open access compliance.
Visibility: Institutions struggle to communicate the full breadth of their research to external audiences. Aarhus University used Pure to raise researcher profiles, secure funding, and build new international collaborations. The Pure Portal provides a ready-made, search-optimized showcase without separate development investment.
