Ethics Screening
Flags data fabrication signals, authorship anomalies, consent gaps, and predatory practices before a single reviewer sees the manuscript.

QC checks aligned with recognised indexing standards
Logos represent indexing services whose quality criteria inform our check library. Galleys.pub is not affiliated with or endorsed by these organisations.
Diagnostic Engines
Nine QC checks no hosting provider can offer
QC runs at qc.galleys.pub — not inside OJS — so your journal site stays fast. Every manuscript passes through independent diagnostics before peer review.
Duplicate Submission Check
Cross-matches title, abstract, and full text against your journal archive and external databases to catch resubmissions and overlapping publications early.
Learn more →Math Verification
Parses inline LaTeX and equations to verify computational consistency — catches transposed values, unit errors, and statistical impossibilities.
Learn more →Citation Integrity
Validates every DOI, detects retracted references, checks self-citation ratios, and flags reference list formatting against 12 major styles.
Learn more →AI-Content Detection
Multi-model AI probability scoring calibrated for academic writing — significantly lower false-positive rates than consumer tools like Turnitin AI.
Learn more →Journal Fit Scoring
Semantic similarity engine scores manuscript topic, methodology, and scope against your journal's published article corpus. Reduce desk rejections by 60%.
Learn more →WoS/Scopus Readiness
Checks against Web of Science and Scopus acceptance criteria — metadata completeness, abstract structure, keyword density, and reference count norms.
Learn more →Proofreading
Grammar, spelling, punctuation, and academic tone checks to help proofreaders and copy editors — with line-level suggestions and severity-ranked fixes.
Learn more →Structure & Numbering
Validates IMRaD section order, figure and table captions, and equation numbering — catching gaps, duplicates, and cross-reference mismatches.
