OpenReview
The OpenReview integration gives Althea a verified researcher identity signal.
That matters for research networks. If Althea is routing an invitation, checking whether someone belongs in a private network, or matching researchers across institutions, it needs provenance. OpenReview is one of the cleaner sources for that.
What It Does
Section titled “What It Does”OpenReview connection lets Althea check:
- your OpenReview profile
- verified email addresses
- primary and secondary affiliated domains
- public profile metadata that helps disambiguate researchers
Keep this separate from your Dossier. The Dossier is Althea’s working model of your background and interests. OpenReview is closer to an identity stamp: a way to say, “this account is attached to this research identity.”
When to Connect It
Section titled “When to Connect It”Connect OpenReview if you’re using Althea for:
- research coordination networks
- academic matchmaking
- private researcher groups
- verified access to research workflows
- Atlas-style contribution or authorship workflows
For ordinary chat, literature search, or code execution, you can leave it disconnected.
Open Settings from your profile menu.
Go to Integrations, then choose OpenReview.
Click Connect OpenReview and complete the authorization flow. When you return to Althea, the integration panel should show that your account is connected.
Affiliated Domains
Section titled “Affiliated Domains”OpenReview profiles can include more than one institutional domain. Althea checks both primary and secondary affiliated domains when matching you to an institution.
This is useful for researchers with multiple affiliations, lab email aliases, or institution-specific domains that don’t match their primary login email.
How Althea Uses It
Section titled “How Althea Uses It”Althea uses OpenReview as a verified identity signal when a workflow needs one.
For example, a coordination network might require that participants are verified researchers from a specific set of institutions. Althea can use OpenReview to check that constraint before routing messages or admitting someone into a network.
The integration is also useful for matching. If a network is trying to connect researchers across two institutions, OpenReview helps Althea avoid fuzzy name matching and other brittle heuristics.
Disconnect
Section titled “Disconnect”Return to the OpenReview integration panel and click Disconnect.
Disconnecting removes the active connection. Your Althea memory and Dossier are managed separately.
