Insights, analytics and tools to maximise research impact & discovery
We started in 2010 by looking for ways to solve challenges we were facing as researchers ourselves.
Today, our innovative technologies empower publishers across the globe with insights, analytics and tools that advance the research lifecycle.
How can we support you?
Our solutions and expertise help publishers to make data-driven decisions, increase efficiencies, and support authors.
Safeguard research integrity
- Dimensions Author Check draws upon the most comprehensive research integrity dataset available to help you quickly review the publishing history of a researcher and the people they have collaborated with, to spot unusual activities like retractions, expressions of concern, or atypical collaboration patterns.
Enhance author services
- Writefull helps your authors speed up the writing and language editing process, and improve the average time to acceptance by 20 days.
- Figshare provides authors with a proficient repository infrastructure and a seamless process for making data and other supplementary materials openly available.
- Altmetric enables authors to see how their research is being shared and discussed online.
- Overleaf provides your authors with a simple 1-click submission, directly into your submission system.
Benchmark performance against competitors
- Altmetric’s Journal Benchmark dashboard enables you to easily share your success with key stakeholders, benchmark your journal performance against competitors, and track the real-world impact of your publications, thanks to a blend of Altmetric and Dimensions data.
Perform landscape analysis and discover trends
- Dimensions enables you to sharpen your strategic decision-making. Horizon scan and perform topical landscape analysis with ease. Gain critical insights into key players, successful collaborations, adjacent fields, funding trends and outcomes for any research area.
Illustrate research impact, discoverability, and engagement
- Altmetric allows you to see changes in reach, citations and online attention across your publications, and show your stakeholders the success of your editorial leadership, communications strategy, and advocacy work.
- Figshare collates all of your additional publications content in a custom-branded portal, providing invaluable usage metrics and driving discoverability.
Streamline your workflows
Identify authors, editors and reviewers
- Dimensions helps you to pinpoint high-impact researchers who currently have funding as potential authors. You can find peer review candidates based on deep concept analysis, and diversify an editorial board by finding qualified editors in under-represented geographies.
- Altmetric allows you to identify potential authors, editors and reviewers, by seeing who is already engaged with your publications and/or has a large online following.
Inform and validate open access agreements
- Dimensions can help to validate Open Access publishing strategies, and evaluate and negotiate transformative agreements. Quantify the number of researchers at institutions in a geography, as well as in publications and/or competitive titles. Identify funded research projects in a subject area for that same geography to look for future volume of possible articles or authors.
