New

Send captures to the Sciagen Content Management System: each capture becomes a draft document with the PDF attached, ready for MLR review.
Sciagen can now run the whole service on one server with a built-in database, which makes private installations simpler.

Improvements

Faster first load on the home page: the sign-up and demo forms now load when you scroll to them.
The cookie banner appears together with the page instead of after it.
