Hi everybody! We are going to launch a new peer review service for research scientists very soon. See the description of how it works and feel free to tell us what you think.
SPapers independent peer review system: As the author of a manuscript that needs peer reviewing, you provide us with the name of the peer you would like to perform the review. The peer does not have to be registered on SPapers.com, so you can choose anyone. We will invite the peer to review your manuscript. Once the peer agrees, SPapers will send him or her your manuscript. At the end of the process, we create a Certified Peer Review Report, which will include the manuscript, the review, and the contact details of the author and of the peer reviewer. Both the author and the reviewer receive a copy of the report. You can use the report to improve your research and your manuscript, and also send the report to journal editors in order to get published faster.
