Journal
Everything in one place
Publish data, code, manuscripts or everything. No complicated flowcharts or juggling between Github and repositories. Publishing data or code is as easy as uploading a file or Github link.
"Diamond Open Access"
No paywalls. No author publication charges. DeSci Publish is Diamond Open Access as it should be - based on open source software that cannot be bought or shut down, all content stored on a peer-to-peer that protects against data loss and enables data sovereignty.
Better peer-review
The review process is customized to your needs and structured by verifiable badges that reflect your journal's selection criteria, creating transparency and valuable meta-data. Peer-review and exchanges with authors happen publicly and directly in the context of the submitted materials.
Focus on what matters
While you're free to do typesetting, graphic design and JATS-XML data wrangling - you don't need to. You can run lightweight journals that keep costs down and deliver on what matters: trust in research results.
Publish code and data
Reach communities that care deeply about access to data and software. With DeSci Publish, digital artifacts can be imported and reused with a single line of code, tracking all citations.
Unlock new opportunities
Issue verified badges that attest to the properties of the research you curate. Make the value of your services visible. Offer new services such as reproducibility checks.
Indexed in CrossRef
Publish all the artifacts of your research, enable others to reproduce, re-use, and credit every component of your work. Let others import your artifacts with a single line of code.
Persistent identifiers for every file
Every version of every file receives an automatic, free persistent identifier that is derived from the content of the file (dPIDs). This makes all publications FAIR by design. DOIs are issued as synonyms for these persistent identifiers for indexing purposes and never need to be updated.
Option to participate in our incentive layer
We will launch a token-based market place for scientific validation and curation services. Participating will open up new revenue sources for your journal, incentivize and reward your referees for doing fast and high-quality work, and automatically match referees to submissions. This will dramatically simplify the work for editors, speed up and improve the review process, and give referees a good reason to work for you.
It’s never been this easy to launch a new journal
Submit
A better submission experience for your authors, finally
Authors can easily upload data, Github repositories, manuscripts, images or any other files. Author information, title, and abstract are automatically extracted from the paper into the submission form.
Review
Improve and accelerate peer-review
Experience granular multiplayer reviewing in context. Create interactive peer-review reports that extend beyond the manuscript. Decide which aspects reviewers should be focusing on. Explore new workflows for scientific validaiton. The system is designed to fast-track peer-reviews, eliminate cumbersome email exchanges, and give credit to every participant in the curation process.
Curate
Curate research for quality
Editors issue badges that attest to the attributed your curated research: open code, open data, computational reproducibility, peer-reviewed, editor's choice - you name it. With Nodes, you can open the black box of peer-review by making explicit the type of curation services that your scientific community values.
Your website, made simple
Embed an interface on your website that allows your audience to interact with all artifacts of research, not just manuscripts.
Storage, taken care of
The data is securely stored on a distributed network, protected from content drift, and resilient against link rot.
PIDs and Metadata, solved
No more URI:DOI tables to maintain or complex metadata standards to comply with. This is taken care of.
