Journal Submission Support
Publishing Support for Under-Resourced Scholars
We provide comprehensive, expert-led support to help talented researchers overcome systemic barriers to academic publication. Our goal: ensure that research quality, not institutional privilege, determines whose work reaches the world.
Services include manuscript preparation, journal selection strategy, submission process guidance, and editorial correspondence support—all provided by experienced academic professionals on a waiting list basis.
Academic Integrity & AI Forensics
Rigorous Verification for High-Stakes Research
Unlike automated detection tools, we provide human-centered, expert verification for PhD dissertations and select Master's theses. Our approach distinguishes between legitimate AI assistance and problematic content generation.
Our Approach
Human-in-the-Loop
Expert scholarly reviewers analyze work in context, not just pattern-matching algorithms.
Nuanced Assessment
We distinguish acceptable editing assistance from problematic content generation.
Institutional Partnerships
Work with dissertation committees and university integrity boards.
High-Confidence Reports
Defensible conclusions that protect students and uphold standards.
Additional Initiatives
RAG URL Protocol Research
Advancing Socratic questioning frameworks for AI research. Our protocol separates reasoning from retrieval, enabling more accurate and transparent academic AI use.
AI Education Workshops
Teaching responsible AI use from beginner to advanced levels. Recent workshop: “How to Talk to AI So It Actually Helps You Study.”
