What we do for a journal

Priced per journal. Start with the free audit; add what the audit shows you need.

Journal Audit

Readiness audit

121 criteria across identity (ISSN, publisher, contact), governance (editor, board with affiliations, peer-review policy), ethics (COPE-aligned policies, plagiarism screening statement), access (licence, OA statement, APC transparency), technical (DOIs, OAI-PMH, Google Scholar tags, archiving) and content (regularity, scope, author diversity). Each item: pass / fix / missing, with the page we looked at.

Fix list and re-audit

A plain-language list an editor can hand to the OJS host, with the exact text to add where policies are missing. Re-audit until the journal is ready to apply — the audit is the gate to GetIndexed.

GetIndexed

Indexing applications

An 8-stage ladder from foundation (ISSN, DOIs, Google Scholar) to selective indexes. Our agent fills and files forms, sends emails from the journal's mailbox, creates accounts, and tracks every application with proof and follow-ups. Where a site blocks automation, your team files from the prepared pack.

Digital Archives

Every published PDF mirrored to the Internet Archive with full metadata, a Wayback snapshot of every article page, and optionally Zenodo and OSF. Missing PDFs are searched for on the internet and listed for the publisher. A "Digital Archives" statement for the website is generated.

Citation & Reference Booster

OpenAlex-based citation dashboard and a 10-point audit of what stops citations, per-article promotion kits, and reference lists parsed from PDFs, matched to DOIs and written into OJS / deposited to Crossref.

DOI Doctor

DOI check & repair

Every DOI tested at doi.org and Crossref; the current page found on your site when the registered link is dead; abstracts, licence URLs, ORCID iDs and affiliations (with ROR IDs) re-deposited in schema 5.5.0 with your approval.

DOI census & backfile DOIs

Site vs Crossref, both directions: articles without a DOI, DOIs not registered, wrong formats, duplicates — one Excel with a copy-paste fix per article. Backfile DOIs proposed from your pattern and registered.

Monitor, metrics, dossier

Weekly checks of site, OAI-PMH, Google Scholar tags, DOI sample, ISSN record, Keepers, Crossref coverage, DOAJ and hijacked-journal lists with email alerts; a public verified-metrics page with badges; a quality-dossier PDF; author citation emails; JATS XML per article.

Research integrity

For authors, editors and universities — the same public record, read for the behaviour that precedes delisting, hijacking and retractions, and manuscripts read for the marks of assistant-written text, paper mills, invented references and reused pictures. Every figure comes with its rule, its evidence and its source; nothing an author checks is shared with a journal.

Journal Risk Radar

An early-warning score 0–100: the behaviour that precedes delisting, hijacking and retractions.

Open →

Manuscript Screen

AI-writing, paper-mill, reference and image signals with the evidence — before you submit.

Open →

Research Integrity OS

Faculty vault, policy engine, compliance desk, QR-verified reports.

Open →

Risk radar for institutions

Every journal in your vault, re-scored weekly with alerts.

Open →

Pre-submission screening

Manuscripts screened for AI-writing, paper-mill, reference and image signals before they go out.

Open →

Screening desk for editors

Submissions, your recent output as the record shows it, and reviewer reports that look alike.

Open →

Authors: free, with a daily allowance; no limit under the Scholar plan. Institutions: per-institution plans on the Research Integrity Desk. Journals: the screening desk is free for editors; a per-journal AI Risk Watch, when offered, is priced on that desk.

Pricing

Journal Audit: first audit free. GetIndexed and DOI Doctor: per-journal plans by stage and by service, quoted after the audit. No per-DOI agent fees; Crossref and archive fees, where any, are paid by the journal to those bodies directly. Ask for a quote →
