RefereeAhead reads your life-science manuscript the way a referee would and lists the concerns likely to come back: missing controls, overreaching claims, statistics, framing. Each quotes your sentence and says what to change. Free scan, $29 report.
Hi Product Hunt, I'm Alex, and I built RefereeAhead.
Many major revisions come from concerns that could have been predicted: one shRNA and no rescue, cells counted as independent replicates, a title that claims aging when the experiments are in culture. RefereeAhead tries to raise those before a journal does. Each finding quotes your sentence, says why a referee would object, and suggests what to change.
An AI reviewer shouldn't be trusted blindly, so we measure it against published referee reports from eLife and publish the numbers, including where it is weak (novelty and framing).
The free scan needs no account. I'd especially like feedback from people who have just been through review: did it catch what your referees caught?
