EACL 2026 - Second Call for System Demonstrations

The EACL 202 System Demonstration Program Committee invites proposals for the Demonstrations Program. Demonstrations may range from early research prototypes to mature production-ready systems. Publicly available open-source or open-access systems are of special interest. We additionally strongly encourage demonstrations of industrial systems that are technologically innovative, given the current state of the art of theory and applied research in natural language processing.

Areas of interest include all topics related to theoretical and applied natural language processing, such as (but not limited to) the topics listed on the main conference website.

Submitted systems may be of the following types:

Natural language processing systems or system components
Application systems using language technology components
Software tools for natural language processing research
Software for demonstration or evaluation
Software supporting learning or education
Tools for data visualization and annotation
Tools for model inspection
Development tools

Papers describing accepted demonstrations will be published in a companion volume of the EACL 2026 conference proceedings. We require at least one of the authors to present a live demo during a demo session at EACL 2026, with an accompanying poster. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for EACL 2026 and present the demo. Please note: Commercial sales and marketing activities are not appropriate in the Demonstrations Program and should be arranged as part of the Exhibit Program.

Important Dates:

Paper submission deadline: Monday, 1 December 2025
Notification of acceptance: Tuesday, 10 February 2026
Camera-ready submission: Friday, 20 February 2026
Main Conference: Tuesday-Sunday, 24-29 March 2026
