SSP EPIC Silver Award – 2026 SSP EPIC Silver Award – 2026

Control what enters peer review. Before it costs you weeks.

EditorialPilot runs 100+ configurable checks across technical readiness, language quality and research integrity — the moment a manuscript arrives. Editors get evidence, not guesswork.

Newsroom

EditorialPilot is now integrated with ScholarOne Manuscripts — via the Silverchair Relay API, screening runs the moment a manuscript is submitted.

Platform modules

100+ checks, organized into three screening pillars.

Every check is configurable by journal — thresholds, required statements and reporting guidelines are yours to set.

02
Language quality

Readability and clarity, scored and explained

Section-level language signals route manuscripts to author revision or language support — without slowing review.

  • Grammar, clarity and structure scoring
  • Non-intrusive AI-assisted editing
  • ~98% accuracy, reproducible results
Configurable by journal

One platform.
Different editorial policies.

Share common checks across a portfolio, then tune thresholds, required statements, file rules and reporting guidelines for each title independently — no separate setup per journal.

How it works

From submission to routing decision.

Four steps, one queue — built around how journal teams actually triage.

01

Upload your manuscript

Manuscripts arrive via Editorial Manager, ScholarOne or direct upload — already in the screening queue.

02

Run the checks

100+ checks run against the journal's configured policy — technical, language and integrity, plus deeper research rigor checks where enabled.

03

Review the flags

Editors see flags, source evidence and confidence level in one queue — nothing is automated past the recommendation.

04

Upload your manuscript

Send to peer review, author query or desk decision — the routing call always sits with the editor.

Beyond compliance checks

Catch the gaps that surface later, during peer review.

Some issues only show up once a reviewer starts asking questions — a missing detail on how a study was run, or a method that can't be traced back to what was actually used. EditorialPilot flags these at submission, so reviewers spend less time chasing basics and more time on the science itself.

  • Flags when a study doesn't explain how it controlled for bias — things reviewers usually have to ask for separately
  • Confirms that materials, tools and resources used in the study are properly identified and traceable
  • One report for editors — readiness, integrity and research rigor shown together, not in separate tools
Study design clearly explained Pass
Bias-control steps reported Missing
Sample size justified Pass
Materials traceable to source Need review
Reporting standards met Pass
