Manusights Weekly
What changed in publishing, and whether it matters for your paper.

The one word NIH wants out of your grant
A funding line moved under thousands of researchers, a 120-paper purge, and the reviewer box that quietly lifts your odds.
Every issue is public. You never have to subscribe to find out what it is like.
What you get, and what you will not
- 01
What actually changed
Fee rises, policy shifts, retraction news, and journal rule changes. The things that alter a submission decision, not industry chatter.
- 02
Whether it matters for you
Most weeks something changes that affects nobody. We say so. When it does affect you, we say exactly who and what to do about it.
- 03
The primary source, every time
Every number links the page it came from, so you can check our work rather than take our word for it.
Written by someone who reads manuscripts for a living, which is why it is about your submission rather than about the publishing industry.
From researchers who used the review
I've tried a few AI review tools, but Manusights stands out, almost like having an editor by your side at all times. Just knowing where to submit saved me months.
Lora Chen · Researcher · University of Hong Kong It helped me restructure my paper after a rejection. It's now under review at AJAE. Extremely helpful for identifying realistic target journals.
Anaëlle Denieul-Babrot · Recent PhD, Economics · INRAE, France It was as if a human editor had reviewed and replied. I incorporated several of its recommendations before submitting.
