Simplifying Research Writing and Editing through Strategic Partnerships

Aries Systems partners with Paperpal to help reduce the editorial workload for authors

January 17, 2023 | London, UK: Paperpal, a CACTUS brand offering AI-powered tools for language and technical compliance checks for research manuscripts, has announced its partnership with Aries Systems Corporation, a leading technology workflow solutions provider to the scholarly publishing community. Through this collaboration, Paperpal’s Preflight product will be used to deliver a superior submission experience to authors, helping to reduce the editorial workload for Aries Systems’ Editorial Manager (EM) users.

Abhishek Goel, Co-founder and CEO, CACTUS said on the partnership, “Paperpal Preflight will provide EM users with instant feedback on the submission readiness of their manuscripts. Powered by machine learning and trained on millions of published articles, Paperpal Preflight helps editors save time when carrying out pre-submission checks, and improves quality of submissions, making sure they comply with journal guidelines.”

Jennifer Fleet, Managing Director, Aries Systems said, “We are thrilled to continue integrating AI tools into the industry-leading manuscript submission system, EM, to create a more robust system. Through our new partnership with Paperpal Preflight, we will be able to provide authors submitting research via EM a streamlined tool to bolster the quality of manuscript submissions and, ultimately, the chances of publication success.”

Through advanced AI algorithms, Paperpal Preflight identifies complex writing errors and provides subject-specific language suggestions in real time prior to manuscript submission. Paperpal’s technology understands the context of the writing, provides appropriate recommendations, and identifies the most common errors in the manuscript to improve the quality of submissions.

In the submission workflow in EM, manuscripts are sent to Paperpal’s user-friendly web-based interface where authors are provided with an automated check for structural inconsistencies and complex grammatical errors before the article is sent to the journal office. Once the manuscript passes through Paperpal, it is sent back to EM for submission, accelerating the writing process, enhancing the quality, and increasing the chance of acceptance.
