Three interconnected offerings serving communities, researchers, and institutions
MapleScholar+ provides AI-powered research access for underrepresented scholars. Our Journal Submission Support program offers manuscript assistance through a waiting list model. AI Forensics partnerships help institutions develop ethical AI practices and dissertation support.
Project Hamburg operates three integrated programs to advance research equity: MapleScholar+ for discovery, Journal Submission Support for publishing, and Academic Integrity & AI Forensics for institutional assurance. Each program is built to serve marginalized, racialized, and minority communities worldwide.
Research equity means access to scientific knowledge, publishing pathways, and integrity protections should not depend on institution, geography, language, or income. Project Hamburg advances this through free discovery tools, publishing support, and institutional partnerships.
MapleScholar+ is a free AI-powered research discovery platform operated by Project Hamburg. It connects real-world issues, including politics, public health, and climate change, to peer-reviewed academic insights.
AI forensics reviews high-stakes academic work, especially PhD dissertations and Master's theses, to distinguish acceptable assistance from problematic generation. Our method combines human expert review with defensible reporting.
Curated Research for Everyone
Our flagship public research platform combats misinformation by connecting real-world issues to peer-reviewed academic insights. It is free, accessible, and built with multilingual support.
Publishing Support for Under-Resourced Scholars
We provide comprehensive, expert-led support to help talented researchers overcome systemic barriers to publication. Our goal is that research quality, not institutional privilege, determines whose work reaches the world.
Services include manuscript preparation, journal selection strategy, submission guidance, and editorial correspondence support, offered through a waiting list process.
Rigorous Verification for High-Stakes Research
We provide human-centered, expert verification for PhD dissertations and select Master's theses. We distinguish acceptable editing assistance from problematic content generation and work with dissertation committees and university integrity boards.
If you are not sure which program is right for your context, share your goals and timeline and we will route you to MapleScholar+, journal support, or AI forensics services.
