Independent scientific review

Put your paper
to the test.

An early technical review can save months of back-and-forth in peer review.

We review the statistics and code behind life sciences manuscripts, check every claim against the evidence, and edit the paper for clarity.

01 / Scope of review

What we scrutinise

We bring expertise in scientific communication and peer review to work ranging from clinical trials to computational biology. We review the paper alongside its figures, supplements and analysis code.

01 DESIGN

Clinical research

Trial design, endpoints, protocol alignment, missing outcomes and the reporting of clinical and observational studies.

02 INFERENCE

Statistical review

We identify statistical issues in model choice, assumptions, missing data, multiplicity and uncertainty, then explain how they could affect the conclusions.

03 CODE

Code review & pull requests

We inspect research codebases, trace reported results to the code that produced them, and can submit pull requests with proposed fixes directly to your repository.

04 COMPUTATION

Computational biology

We examine omics pipelines, model validation, data leakage, batch effects and whether the methods are described well enough to reproduce.

05 EVIDENCE

Claim-by-claim review

We evaluate every claim in the paper, from abstract to figure captions, against the underlying analyses or cited literature. We flag claims that need stronger support or more precise wording.

06 LANGUAGE

Language & readability

We edit for clarity, flow and precise scientific language so readers can follow the argument and understand what the results show.

02 / How we harness frontier AI

Expert-led review, powered by AI

We deploy bespoke agents built on advanced AI models. For complex studies, they can run thousands of checks across data, figures and code. Automating these checks helps keep your review costs down.

An expert leads every review. Your reviewer sets the scope, directs the agents and checks the findings that could change your conclusions or require substantial revisions before delivering the report.

03 / Sample reviews

From critique to revision

Two independent reviews of public research. Each assesses the paper’s contribution, prioritises revisions and shows the checks behind the findings.

Clinical research · Published article

COV009 vaccine follow-up

Reconciles the article, protocol and registry. Rebuilds rare-event comparisons from the appendix and examines how incomplete follow-up affects interpretation.

Genomics · Preprint

DiSCoVeR STEC genomics

Joins isolate-level supplementary tables to check clinical outcomes, traces a figure discrepancy to the underlying counts and tests sample-ID handling in the linked pipeline.

04 / Large studies

50 supplementary figures?
We review the whole study.

No supplement is too big. We review large datasets, multi-cohort analyses and extensive figure sets, tracing results across the paper, supplement and code.

Supplementary figure index50 figures
Fictional example. Highlighted figures show three kinds of issues we look for.
S08 Cohort counts
Reconcile the sample sizes in the cohort diagram, analysis tables and main text.
S27 Sensitivity analysis
Check whether the result holds under a different exclusion rule and whether the abstract reflects the change.
S46 Figure provenance
Trace the plotted values to the generating script and verify that the caption describes the right analysis.

05 / Process

How a review works

Start with one manuscript or discuss a recurring review process for your research group.

  1. 01

    Agree the scope

    Tell us the study type, target journal if selected, and submission date. We agree the materials, technical priorities and timeline.

  2. 02

    Review the evidence

    Your reviewer directs AI agents to check the manuscript claim by claim and examine the agreed analyses, code and supporting materials.

  3. 03

    Prioritise revisions

    You receive a written review with ranked findings and suggested actions. Depending on scope, we can also provide tracked manuscript edits and submit pull requests.

06 / Enquiries

Discuss your
next submission.

We welcome enquiries from research groups in Saudi Arabia and internationally. A short outline of your study, its current stage and your submission window is enough to get started.

Please keep manuscript files and patient data out of your initial enquiry. We can agree how to share review materials once we’ve scoped the project.

Your contact details and enquiry will be processed by Web3Forms and delivered to Manuscript Red Team so we can respond.

The enquiry form is awaiting inbox verification.
