A service resource which allows peer reviewers to record and showcase the peer reviews they have completed, both those that led to publication and to rejection. Peer reviews can be recorded on Publons by forwarding review receipts from journals to the site. The merit of reviewers is accrued by pre- and post-publication peer review, discussion papers in Publons, and comments on or endorsment of the contributions of other reviewers. Reviewers may publish their own reviews so long as the reviewed manuscript is published and the review policies of the journal allow for it. Users can choose what personal information is displayed and easily export their profile in a format suitable for inclusion in promotion and funding applications.

A database that archives publications and allows users to review and critique them. Users can write comments for and rate submitted publications for references, originality, argumentation, and reliability. Papercritic also collects tweets and blog posts about published papers to add as reviews and comments. Researchers who submit their published work to PaperCritic can keep track of multiple types of feedback. All reviews must be submitted with full identity disclosure.

A repository which hosts and archives original and edited scientific papers. Scientists can post their academic manuscripts on Libre, where they can find reviewers who will formally evaluate the manuscripts. Evaluated works are posted alongside the original manuscript with reviewers' identities disclosed and the work they edit given its own DOI. Users can post additional updated versions of their work to Libre or send their papers to journals. Papers and reviews are rated by other scientists, and from these Libre creates holistic indeces listing the best rated writers and reviewers.

A peer review management system which encourages timely and high quality peer review by using a credit system. Reviewers complete reviews using a general webform on academickarma.org, and if that review is submited to an editor within ten days, the reviewer is awarded a certain amount of points (karma credits). The author and editor both receive the review. Editors can use Academic Karma to identify specialized reviewers for future reference. A reviewer's personal profile, which includes the amount of karma credits they've received, is connected to their ORCID account and publication record for an overview of the reviewer's work.

A database where researchers and editors can read and post reviews and ratings of scientific journals and their publishing processes. Efficient journals get credits for their efforts to improve their review process and the way they handle manuscripts, while less efficient journals are stimulated to put energy in better organization. Researchers can search for a journal with a speedy review procedure and have their papers published earlier. Editors get the opportunity to compare their journal's performance with that of others and to provide information about their journal at our website.

A database where researchers can read and post reviews of publishing experiences with scientific journals. When writing comments, reviewers are adivsed to provide facts where possible, be specific, be honest, check the review, and offer constructive criticism when writing a negative report. Journalysis collates submitted reviews and data for each journal and provides useful summary information (metrics). Authors wanting to find out more about specific journals can search its databases and find the best journal for their next manuscript submission. Journals can use these reviews and metrics to demonstrate high publishing standards, or to improve standards where reviews may be negative.

A database which allows researchers to view and comment on the logistics of scientific journals' review processes. JournalReviewer collects and aggregates feedback from users who have submitted manuscripts to journals in order to provide information for others considering journal submissions. Statistics such as turnaround rate, review length and quality, journal recommendations, and desk reject plausabilities are compiled from commentors' ratings.

A web application which allows users to create data visualizations using JavaScript that can be embedded in a web page. Users can load some Google Chart libraries, list the data to be charted, select options to customize their chart, and create a chart object with a personally chosen id. Then, in the web page, users create a <div> with that id to display the Google Chart. Charts are customizable and interactive, and since they are rendered using HTML5/SVG technology, charts are cross-browser compatibility and cross platform portability to iPhones, iPads and Android.

A database and storage service resource that allows researchers to create a companion website, a website which allows people to run the computer codes associated with a scientific publication. Users upload or paste data, choose the value of the parameters, and click on the Exec&Share button. All calculations are done on a dedicated cloud computer and are automatically displayed to the user. It is also possible to only make the code downloadable, but not executable. In that case, users can download the code and run it on their own computer. Companion websites can currently be made from a code written in R, MATLAB©, C++, Fortran, and Rats.

A web application which provides the framework for collaborative preparation and publication of computational experiments that can back executable papers. The Collage environment enables researchers to embed chunks of executable code and data into scientific publications and facilitate repeated execution of such codes on underlying computing and data storage resources. Executable papers made with Collage can be embedded into a web site.

A peer review service resource which allows researchers to dictate the time constraints in which their manuscripts are peer reviewed. Authors submit their manuscript to Peerage of Science before submitting to any journal and decide the deadlines for the four stages of the process (which are "Submission and Reviews," "Peer-review-of-peer-review," "Manuscript revision upload or withdrawal for re-submission," and "Final evaluation of the revised manuscript"). Once submitted, any qualified, non-affiliated Peer can choose to review the manuscript. The peer reviews are peer reviewed and are also available to all subscribing journals with automated event tracking. Authors may accept a direct publishing offer from a subscribing journal, or choose to export the peer reviews to any journal of their choice.
