AI-assisted reviewer-style analysis

Before the real referee, we take a look.

More than language polish: AI-assisted academic review, methodology analysis, and up-to-date literature context to improve your submission readiness.

New: after Scenario A review, we can surface journal-fit suggestions (with quartile notes) from our catalog — confirm on each journal site before submitting.

Features

What do we offer?

Aligned with the upload flow: file prep, analysis, and output in one place.

Three-slot upload

Add your main manuscript as PDF, DOCX, or ODT; upload tables and figures in separate slots. We parse them so tables and figures are reviewed distinctly in the report.

Literature-backed analysis

RAG across PubMed, Crossref, and Semantic Scholar connects your study to current evidence and field context.

Referee-style report and score

Publication-readiness score, axis-based review, and a prioritised action plan — clear pre-submission feedback.

Review or language editing

Choose AI peer-style review or English copy-editing in the same flow; pricing follows the service you pick.

Revisions and external comments

Upload a revision and optionally add journal or referee comments so the analysis matches your context.

Clinical and English-first

The flow is tuned for biomedical work; the main text for review should be in English.

PDF guidance, table and image slots, and a pre-flight checklist — details on the upload page; sign-in is required to continue.

How it works

We are not ChatGPT. We review like a referee.

Using RAG, we ground signals in academic databases and review your manuscript across four dimensions.

1

Upload your manuscript

Upload a PDF or DOCX. You can add tables and figures separately.

2

Literature + AI analysis

PubMed, Crossref, and Semantic Scholar are queried; findings are aligned with peer-review-style criteria.

3

Report and action plan

You get a publication-readiness score, critical fixes, and a clear revision plan.

Journal fit

Where could this manuscript go?

For English biomedical manuscripts, we combine embedding search over an in-house journal catalog with an optional AI re-rank — then attach a structured block to your report (not generic chat guesses).

Catalog + vectors

Journal rows are enriched from public metadata (e.g. Crossref, DOAJ) and embedded into a dedicated Qdrant collection for similarity search.

Discipline-aware retrieval

We infer your field from the review context, apply soft filters, and relax them if the catalog is sparse — so you still get usable shortlists.

Report + export

Suggestions appear in the web report and exports (DOCX / PDF) with conservative wording: always verify aims, scope, and reporting guidelines yourself.

Pricing

One review quality

Every paid manuscript gets the same full peer-review pipeline. Price scales with word count and workload (including PDF as the main file), not feature tiers.

Short manuscript

Up to 3,000 words

From $29 USD

Same full review for every band

  • Shorter body; usually fewer tables, figures, and extra materials.
  • Statistical workload tends to be lighter—focus stays on the core narrative.
  • Higher bands reflect size and workload, not unlocking extra product features.
  • Turnaround depth matches this word band and typical file weight.

Most popular

Medium manuscript

3,001 – 5,000 words

From $45 USD

Same full review for every band

  • Mid-length text; more sections and often more tables or figures.
  • More pages and visuals increase extraction, reading, and cross-check time.
  • As methods or results expand, statistical review load rises naturally.
  • Quotes follow size and complexity—not a feature ladder between tiers.

Long manuscript

5,001+ words

From $59 USD

Same full review for every band

  • Long papers; many references, dense supplements, and heavy tables.
  • Lots of figures or dense numeric displays increase processing time.

  • Same product scope; price scales with volume and complexity.

The pre-submission report flagged a statistical issue our internal reviewers missed. Saved us from a desk reject.

"

The methodology feedback was granular — it read like a real reviewer's report. The literature context section was the most useful part for our team.

PR

Postdoctoral researcher

Neuroscience, R1 university

"

The journal-fit suggestion saved us months — we re-submitted to a better-fit Q2 instead of chasing a Q1 with the wrong scope.
