Has any study in our reference list been retracted or corrected since we last checked?

A withdrawn-paper alert watches your list, such as the studies behind a guideline, and tells you when a notice is issued: its type, its date and how long the paper had stood.

Is this journal suddenly publishing far more papers than usual, and is one special issue behind it?

A journal integrity radar sets each journal's output of new papers and retractions against its own usual level, so an outsized special issue or a run of retractions from one group of co-authors stands out.

If one group of co-authors had its papers retracted, which of our recommendations would lose support?

A retraction cascade read traces those retractions through your own evidence table and shows which recommendations would lose support, how soon and where the exposure is greatest.

What share of our papers can anyone read free of charge, and where?

An open-access checker marks each paper free or not, with where the free copy sits, its licence and how soon after publication it became free, plus a running gauge of your free-to-read share.

Does a surge in a journal's output really go with more retractions later?

Panbiota reads how often a surge is followed by retractions, set against similar journals with no surge, and what a surge likely means for a journal now.

Who it is for

Who uses it.

A publisher's open-plan editorial office in London at dusk, long rows of desks holding stacks of printed journal issues and bound volumes under glowing lamps, no one in frame

Research-integrity teams at publishers

Which journals to investigate for paper mills? Daily output and retractions per journal, flagged the day either breaks from its norm.

A large teaching hospital's main building in Johannesburg at dawn, its long facade catching first light, a few staff small at the entrance doors

Guideline committees and systematic reviewers

Does the recommendation still stand? A retraction or correction on your reference list, reported the day it is issued.

Aerial view of a large university library and its quadrangle in the American Midwest on an autumn morning, small figures crossing paths between red-brick buildings

University research offices and libraries

Meeting funder rules, and which subscriptions to renew? Paper by paper: what is free, where, and under which licence.

A vast printing hall at a publisher's plant in Germany at night, reels of paper and a press at full speed under bright strip lights, a single worker tiny in the distance

Equity analysts and funds covering listed publishers

How is a publisher moving between results? Output, free-to-read share and retractions, each against the publisher's own trend.

Exterior of a biotech laboratory complex in Cambridge, England at dusk, a long glass-fronted building with lit windows reflecting a darkening sky, a cyclist far off

Life-science investors and corporate scouting teams

Which research to back or partner on? New preprints, fast-cited papers and retraction alerts show if the science holds.

Modelled, tested, simulated, run

What we model, test and run.

Set-up, modelled

Special-issue surge

A journal's daily papers far above usual, a big guest-edited special issue behind it, one author group with past retractions. Flagged the day it starts, with what such surges have led to before: retractions, delisting, and how soon.

Arbitrage set-up

Subscription versus free copy

What your library pays for a journal, against the share already free in repositories. When does the gap beat version and embargo limits, licence terms and the cost of finding each copy?

Theory, tested

Surge, then retractions

When a journal's monthly output triples: how often retractions rise in the two years after, and how fast.

Simulation

Retraction cascade

One author group's papers start being retracted, spreading through co-authors and citations. Out: references and recommendations losing support, and how soon.

Engine

Evidence watch engine

Watches every new paper, preprint, retraction and correction. Submissions held, integrity cases opened, recommendations marked for review. Runs in your systems, on your rules.

What Panbiota can build

What we build for you.

Journal integrity radar

Each journal's and publisher's daily new papers and retractions against its own usual level. An outsized special issue or a retraction run lights up the same day.

Withdrawn-paper alert

Watches your papers, such as a guideline's studies, and fires on any retraction or correction. Notice type, date, and how long the paper stood.

Preprint-to-journal estimator

Each preprint followed from posting to journal version. Share published within six and twelve months, the range of waits, and the fastest journals.

Open-access checker

Your list of papers, each marked free or not: where the copy sits, its licence, and days until free. Weekly free-to-read share gauge.

Citation take-off tester

Citations for each new paper, dataset and software release, flagging take-off that is fast for its field and age, and whether it is likely to last.

05

Services

Delivered to you.

Morning publishing reading

Each morning: yesterday's new papers by publisher, field and country against usual, new retractions and corrections, and the biggest movers.

Shelves of identical lever-arch submission files in a regulator's archive room in Stockholm, bright strip lights, a rolling ladder at the end of the aisle

Reference checks for evidence reviews

Every reference in a review, guideline or regulator submission checked against retraction and correction notices. Cascade simulation on request.

Integrity readings for publishers

Weekly: journals whose output or retractions moved furthest from usual, with the papers behind each flag. An assistant in your chat answers questions.

Open-access reports for universities and funders

Monthly: your free-to-read share, where copies sit, under which licence, and how long each took.
