Who we are
A consultancy built for the standards of scholarly publishing.
We are not a general marketing agency. We are specialists who understand the exacting requirements of CrossRef, ISSN centres, Scopus, DOAJ, Web of Science, and the Higher Education Commission — and how to meet them without cutting corners.
- Criteria-aligned, evidence-backed submissions
- Honest readiness assessments — no false promises
- End-to-end handling, from audit to handover
Integrity first.
We tell you what is achievable, not what you want to hear — because indexing decisions rest with each database's board, never with a consultant.
Every engagement is handled by people who understand the standards — not a generalist agency learning on your journal. When your submission reaches a reviewer, nothing about it gives them a reason to say no.

How we work
A disciplined process, fixed in scope.

Consultation & Audit
We review your journal's current standing — ISSN status, editorial board, archive, indexing, and metadata — and produce a candid readiness report.

Roadmap & Proposal
You receive a written, sequenced plan with realistic timelines, dependencies, and a fixed scope. No open-ended retainers.

Preparation & Remediation
We close compliance gaps — policies, licensing, plagiarism checks, metadata — and prepare every document each database requires.
What guides us
