Sobre o Penelope

30+ configurable manuscript checks

More than 30 checks spanning ethics approval and informed consent, conflict of interest, data sharing, funding, author contributions, abstract structure, required headings, figures and tables, referencing style, word counts and file cleanliness.

No black box — linked evidence

Every result is tied to the relevant marked-up section of the manuscript, so editors and authors can see exactly which sentence or heading produced the pass or fail — the criteria are published in the developer documentation.

Journal-by-journal configuration

Journals decide which checks to run, which are critical, and how the feedback reads, defined on a journal-by-journal basis to match that publication's author guidelines.

In-platform and full reports

Top-level results surface inside the manuscript handling software, while a full interactive report gives the deeper annotated view for editors and authors.

Metadata extraction

Title, page numbers, double line spacing, registered trademarks and other metadata are pulled out automatically as part of every run.

Penelope.ai automates pre-submission manuscript checking for academic journals. It inspects a submission against that journal's own author guidelines — ethics, declarations, abstract structure, figures and tables, referencing style, word counts and file cleanliness — and returns an annotated report linking every result back to the exact passage that triggered it. Editors cut triage time; authors find out what is missing before they submit.
