Think bigger than a plan

ARGOS taps into OpenAIRE’s infrastructure to power your research from start to finish.

At OpenAIRE, we believe strongly that supporting the research lifecycle takes more than good planning, it requires the infrastructure to connect those plans into action. That’s where ARGOS and the OpenAIRE ecosystem come together.

ARGOS is not a standalone tool. It is part of a trusted network of OpenAIRE services that power Open Science across Europe. Together, they help researchers, institutions, and funders coordinate efforts, build meaningful links, and monitor research practices with confidence.
