How It Works
Talk to us about your goals and the volume of peer reviews you need. Most institutions are set up in just a few weeks.
Sign a volume agreement and enable your researchers to book a peer review through your institution.
Your researchers sign up on our portal, and upload their manuscripts for peer review.
Two qualified experts assess the manuscript in a double-blind process over two rounds. A structured peer review report is generated, including reviewer assessments, and scores - there is no accept/reject decision. All identities remain anonymous until process completion.
Your researchers receive a publication-ready manuscript together with the official peer review report. They can upload their manuscript to any platform of their choice or submit it to a journal. The peer review report is published on our website. Readers can directly access the report via our search engine or the manuscript, and verify the quality of the work in a transparent manner.
