One service year is 12 months from activation.Starter / year40 charged × ₹500
Complete / year50 charged × ₹800
Pricing, fair use and optional services +
Launch pricing: quarterly invoicing based on accepted articles. The first 10 accepted articles are free only on Starter, once per journal service year. Revisions and repeat proof rounds do not create another acceptance charge.
The free Starter tier is intended for small journals: up to 100 new submissions per service year and 1 GB of retained private files. Higher-volume needs, paid-plan storage allowances and support arrangements are agreed during onboarding. No automatic charge is introduced for a rejected article.
India pricing applies to journals contracted through an eligible Indian publisher or institution. Optional migration, custom favicon branding, bespoke development, personal copyediting/typesetting and third-party accounts are quoted separately. No unlimited-storage or 24/7-support commitment is implied.
On upgrade, an article already charged under Starter can move to Complete for the price difference. A free Starter article entering Complete production is charged at the full Complete rate. Acceptance reversals, credits and offboarding are agreed in the service terms before enrolment.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
A clear start
for your editorial team.
How much can our journal customize?
Your name, logo, instructions, supported submission settings, assessment and review forms, email templates and team configuration can be tailored using journal settings. We agree the configuration during onboarding. New features and bespoke development are scoped separately.
Can we keep our existing journal website?
Yes. The editorial portal handles submissions and the editorial workflow. Your existing website continues to host published content; its submission link directs authors to the portal. Website migration, DOI registration, indexing and digital preservation are separate arrangements.
Does Complete include special issues?
Yes. Complete includes editorial collection workflows, guest-editor involvement and prospective contributor tools. Starter covers regular submissions through acceptance. Public issue publishing is not bundled into collection management.
Are copyediting and typesetting done for us?
Complete provides the tools, assignments and online proof workflow. Your team performs copyediting and prepares typeset PDFs. Training is included; optional hands-on services require a separate quote.
How does similarity screening work?
Your team can upload a report from its chosen provider and record the technical screening result. An optional iThenticate 2 API connection uses the journal’s eligible account and credentials, subject to connection verification. Similarity scores support editorial judgement; they do not automatically decide a manuscript.
Who pays—and what triggers the charge?
The journal or publisher pays the platform fee when formal acceptance is released. This is separate from any article processing charge the journal chooses to collect from authors. Starter has 10 free acceptances per service year; Complete charges from the first acceptance.
What happens to our data if we leave?
Data ownership, available exports, the handover process and retention periods are agreed in the service terms before onboarding. Backups support recovery; they are separate from a long-term scholarly preservation service.
