Title, abstract and keywords

After you upload your file, the manuscript page shows its title, abstract and keywords for you to check. Each has optional AI help.

Title

Use a title of four words or more. Improve proposes a clearer version, and Suggest 5 Titles offers five alternatives based on your title and abstract. Keep, edit or ignore them.

Abstract

The abstract must have 50 to 600 words; around 300 is best. The word count is shown beside it. Its tools:

  • Get from uploaded file – reads the abstract from your manuscript file;
  • English abstract – for a paper in another language, a translation of the abstract into English for you to check;
  • Improve – grammar, clarity and academic style;
  • Tone – rewrite it as Educational, Technical, Concise or Expanded;
  • Similarity Check – flags generic or overused phrases and suggests alternatives;
  • Find Similar Articles – looks for published work close to yours.
