PaperScore is an international scientific publication platform that does not accept or reject papers, but rather grades them with rating scores and lets the authors decide whether or not to publish their papers along with the reviewers’ comments and scores.

PaperScore is not limited to any field of study and publishes papers from all research areas. During 2024, each new user can submit one manuscript for FREE.

Why No Editors?

Editors decide if a submission falls under the scope of the journal.

shadowPaperScore does not follow traditional categorizations based on disciplines, but rather uses keywords to “tag” papers, so any manuscript can be published in PaperScore.

Editors find and assign reviewers for a submitted manuscript.

shadowPaperScore uses keywords, references, an incentive system and the small world phenomenon to find and acquire the most suitable reviewers for each manuscript.

Editors decide to reject or accept a manuscript.

shadowPaperScore lets authors decide whether to release, revise or withdraw their manuscript, but if released, it is published with the reviewer comments and median rating scores.

Editors judge and evaluate the reviewers' works and contributions.

shadowPaperScore acknowledges accurate and timely reviews through reviewer points. Reviewers are evaluated against each other and by the authors and the readers.
