Protect research integrity and reputation with transparent, data-driven assessments, built on trusted global data.
Dimensions Author Check enables publishers and government agencies to quickly assess researchers, reviewers, and grant applicants for potential integrity indicators, supporting transparent and defensible decisions.
With over 25M+ researcher profiles and trusted global data, it replaces slow, inconsistent manual searches with standardised, audit-ready integrity evidence.
Publishers
Government and Funders
Demonstrate transparency and accountability with confidence.
Publishers and funders are under pressure to demonstrate transparency, consistency, and accountability in every decision. Manual or inconsistent vetting makes it difficult to maintain these standards, leading to issues such as:
- Reputation impact: When published or supported work is later associated with retractions or suspected papermill indicators.
- Compliance pressure: As integrity and research security mandates tighten.
- Audit limitations: When documentation is incomplete or lacks transparent, defensible evidence.
- Operational inefficiency: Teams repeat slow, manual searches across disparate data sources instead of relying on standardised integrity evidence.
A data-driven way to evaluate researcher integrity
Dimensions Author Check combines comprehensive global data with intuitive tools to assess research integrity at the individual researcher level.
Powered by the Dimensions database and enhanced with external integrity datasets, it analyses researcher profiles, publication records, and collaboration networks to flag potential integrity indicators.

Author Check connects to the full Dimensions database and external integrity datasets such as Retraction Watch and the Problematic Paper Screener.
3. Integrity analysis
The system flags indicators such as retractions, suspected papermill indicators, suspected overused phrases, and atypical publishing patterns.
4. Make a decision
Results are presented in standardised, easy-to-interpret reports that support consistent, defensible decisions across teams and institutions.
Make faster, defensible integrity checks
25M+ researcher profiles
Draw from the most comprehensive research database, combined with trusted integrity datasets including Retraction Watch and the Problematic Paper Screener
Researcher lookup
Quickly find researchers by name, institution, or ORCID ID. Access complete profiles in seconds, eliminating the need for multiple manual lookups.
Flagged publications
Identify publications connected to integrity indicators such as retractions, suspected papermill indicators, or suspected overused phrases, helping you address potential issues before they become reputation challenges.
Transparent indicators
Every flag comes with context. Understanding the reason behind each indicator enables you to make informed, defensible assessments rather than uninformed decisions.
