It is not easy to publish an article in a specialized scientific journal. Many times there are very complex review policies and practices, so returning items or waiting a long time in line is common.
In other cases, journals just want money, and those publication fees are what keep thousands of articles from getting published every day.
To avoid this situation, and allow scientists with limited resources to publish quality articles, PoolText is born, a platform born at MIT, co-founded by Ali Furkan Akin, where researchers can upload articles and receive invitations to submit their work to journals. peer-reviewed from around the world.
How PoolText works
PoolText sorts articles and magazines by topic and uses artificial intelligence to give feedback related to the readability of the manuscript, the accuracy of the references and the updating. That makes it easier for investigators to fix issues before submitting them, so review is done much faster.
The platform already supports thousands of researchers in more than 100 countries, mainly with medical, health sciences and dental journals, although it is prepared to deal with any subject.
Its focus is to help researchers from developing countriesbut they also have users from the United States and Europe.
On the other hand, they help journals that want to improve their impact and get more manuscripts from all over the world, so they help both parties, those who want to publish and those who want to be published.
PoolText offers free and paid tools to help researchers select journals, and is now working more directly with universities, providing affiliated researchers with access to its platform and also providing universities with information on how well they are training their researchers to publish their work.
A great idea that can help a lot to spread science around the world.
