Lab Plan · for labs & research programs

Pre-submission review for your whole lab

Give every member of your lab senior-reviewer-grade feedback before they submit, in one shared portal, on your lab's budget.

It's the same AI engine behind our Full Review, trained by 35+ current Nature, Cell, and Science reviewers, as a team plan with pooled review credits, unlimited seats, and memory across every revision.

The two things that slow your lab's papers down

The PI bottleneck

Internal review waits on one calendar. Trainees get feedback late, or not at all, and revise blind in between.

Lost institutional memory

What got flagged on draft v1 lives in your head or a buried thread. When a postdoc graduates, their standards leave with them.

Structured internal review works, labs that run it well see materially higher acceptance, but few have the time to do it consistently. The Lab Plan makes it consistent, fast, and permanent.

What your lab gets

Feedback on every draft, without waiting on the PI

Every member gets a structured, senior-reviewer-grade review the moment a draft is ready. The PI reviews a stronger v2 instead of being the bottleneck on v1.

One standard for the whole lab

The same rubric and engine, trained by 35+ current Nature, Cell, and Science reviewers, for every trainee, not luck-of-the-draw mentorship.

It remembers your last revision

Re-upload a revision and the engine reviews it against what it flagged before, showing what is fixed and what is still open across every round.

Institutional memory that survives graduation

Every review and revision round is kept in the lab portal, so your lab's standards outlive any one member and onboard new ones faster.

How the Lab Plan works

1

Your lab gets a shared portal

A lab-scoped workspace with a pool of review credits and seats for the whole team.

2

Anyone uploads a draft

A member submits a manuscript and gets a structured AI review in minutes, drawing from the pool.

3

Revisions are tracked

Re-upload a new version; the engine reviews it against the prior round and tracks fixed vs. still-open.

4

You see usage and top up

The PI sees what the lab reviewed and can add credits anytime. No per-seat fees.

Pricing & budget

Plans are priced per lab, with pooled review credits and unlimited seats. Billed annually or monthly, and you can top up credits anytime. We're onboarding a first set of labs as pilots, so pricing is set per lab, tell us your size and throughput and we'll scope it.

Expensable

Fits a typical PI-discretionary line; no procurement queue for most labs.

Card or invoice/PO

Pay by procurement card, or annual invoice/PO with a W-9 for grant-funded budgets.

No security-review delay

Manuscripts carry no PHI, PII, or FERPA data, so there's no lengthy vendor security review.

Typical budget line:

Other Direct Costs · Professional Services · Electronic Resources

Budget justification language you can copy
Manusights provides AI-assisted pre-submission scientific review for the research group, strengthening manuscripts before journal submission. The review engine is trained by 35+ current Nature, Cell, and Science reviewers and evaluates each manuscript for scientific rigor, methodological soundness, statistical reporting, and clarity, with review memory across revision rounds and a shared lab portal. Billing: annual or monthly subscription (per lab), payable by procurement card or invoice/PO. W-9 available. Deliverable: a structured written evaluation per manuscript, with specific recommendations and cross-revision tracking.

Questions PIs ask

Is our unpublished work safe in a shared portal?

Your lab gets a private, lab-scoped workspace with no cross-lab visibility. Manuscripts are processed with zero data retention, never used to train any AI model, and a data-processing agreement is available on request.

We already do journal club. Why this?

Journal club reviews other people's published papers and builds judgment, but it never touches your lab's own unpublished drafts and leaves no record of what was flagged. The portal closes that gap and keeps the record.

Is AI feedback trustworthy?

The engine is trained by 35+ current top-journal reviewers, and every citation and statistic is checked. Treat it as a strong first pass that makes the PI's read faster, not a replacement for it. It is review, not editing, ghostwriting, or a guarantee of acceptance.

For graduate programs and writing centers

Graduate programs, writing centers, and research offices can give students and postdocs a shared way to get a rigorous scientific read before their first submissions to high-impact journals, alongside existing writing support.

Works alongside departmental writing support
Useful for first submissions to Nature, Science, Cell tier
Scientific critique, not editing or ghostwriting
Confidential, with no content shared with the institution
