AI Capabilities
AI that assists editors — not a chatbot, not hype
We built AI for specific editorial tasks. Here is exactly what is live, what is coming, and what we will never automate.

Submission screening and duplicate detection
Every submission is screened automatically on arrival. The editor sees a 0–100 quality score, a recommendation, and a set of specific concern flags — generated by Claude Haiku against the title, abstract, and keywords. Duplicate detection surfaces similar manuscripts already in the journal before the editor assigns reviewers.
- Quality score 0–100 on every submission (80–100 = accept range, 50–79 = revise, 0–49 = reject)
- Three-way recommendation: ACCEPT / REVISE / REJECT
- Concern flags: Plagiarism Risk, Scope Mismatch, Weak Methodology, Unclear Contribution, Ethical Concern
- Duplicate detection: semantic match against existing journal submissions with similarity scores
- AI screening can be re-run after an author revises — new score and flags generated
- Powered by Claude Haiku via the Anthropic API — model version recorded per screening

What AI does not do
Editorial judgment stays with the editor
The screening output is advisory. No submission is automatically rejected or accepted by the system. No decision letter is sent without editor review and explicit action. Manuscript data is never used to train models.
- No automated accept or reject decisions
- No automated reviewer invitations based on AI output alone
- No author communication without editor action
- Manuscript content not used to train or fine-tune any model
- AI output clearly labelled as advisory in the editor interface
- Editors can override, dismiss, or note disagreement with any flag
