The only research intelligence service with data across the full research lifecycle

Dimensions has more interconnected data than any other provider – including the most extensive grant information of any platform.

This is a breadth and depth of data that you can’t find anywhere else.

One other big difference: the data is open and inclusive. Why?

Our mission is to support the research ecosystem in order to change the world for the better, and that includes not imposing our own limitations on what you see.
