Integrity & Compliance Checks

Morressier embedded Copyleaks’ detection of plagiarism and AI-generated text into its Integrity Manager, for academic societies and publishers screening proceedings, abstracts and journal workflows. Available inside Morressier’s platform or standalone for batch checks, across multiple languages.

Pangram Labs builds AI-text detection for researchers, educators and publishers: analysing text for AI characteristics, verifying originality and supporting transparent attribution, on the premise that AI tools are now a permanent part of writing workflows.

Papercheck is an open-source, modular tool that screens manuscripts for adherence to best practices — power analyses, data sharing and other common issues — giving authors automated pre-submission checks.

Clear Skies’ Papermill Alarm is an early-warning system for journal editors: it analyses submission metadata and content patterns for signs of paper-mill activity, so flagged manuscripts get heightened scrutiny in peer review.

Proofig AI detects AI-generated microscopy images in scientific manuscripts, alongside its existing duplication, manipulation and plagiarism checks — analysing images for the patterns and anomalies that generation leaves behind.

SciScore, from SciCrunch, scores manuscripts on rigour and transparency. Version 3 beta adds a redesigned report with a summary cover page, explanations with improvement suggestions, and a statistics module that checks statistical methods against expected reporting practice.

Elsevier built a text mining tool for semi-automated checking of clinical trial reports against the CONSORT guidelines, identifying statements corresponding to checklist items so authors and editors can see what’s missing.

Signals’ Sleuth AI plugs into editorial workflows and automatically extracts and flags conflict-of-interest, funding and ethics statements, pinpointing anything unusual. It also surfaces questionable references and runs exploratory analysis to catch irrelevant or AI-generated content.

SnappShot is Springer Nature’s tool for scanning PDFs for duplicated gel and blot images — a classic marker of data manipulation — flagging suspects for human investigation.

The STM Integrity Hub is shared infrastructure for publishers to screen manuscripts collectively — duplicate submissions, paper-mill signals — on the logic that fraud that spans publishers can’t be caught by publishers working alone.
