Pure is one of the most widely-deployed Current Research Information Systems globally — used by ~400+ universities across the UK, EU, Australia, and increasingly North America. Pure ingests publication, grant, and contribution metadata from Scopus, ORCID, Crossref, and direct deposit. CRediT is supported as a contribution-type vocabulary; integration with the CASRAI Dictionary lets institutions augment Pure's controlled-vocabulary lists with the full CASRAI term set.
