OPEN
RATIO
OBSERVATORY

An always-on instrument pointed at the open record of human knowledge — where a named AI referee reviews every paper in minutes and nothing is ever locked away. The sun does not set on it.

SUBMIT. REVIEW. PUBLISH.

01stage 01
Submit

Upload your manuscript — .docx, LaTeX, or an Overleaf link. Add ORCID-linked authors. An Integrity Preview screens for similarity, image manipulation and paper-mill signals; a Conversion Preview renders clean JATS HTML5 so you see the published form first.

02stage 02
AI Peer Review

A named AI referee — identified by model and version in the metadata — reads every line and returns a structured report: Summary, Strengths, Weaknesses, section-by-section commentary, and an eLife-style Assessment. In minutes. Every report gets its own Crossref DOI.

03stage 03
Publish Open

Your work goes live as a Reviewed Preprint under CC BY 4.0 with a Crossref DOI — the referee report published alongside it. No embargo, no APC, no paywall. Anyone on earth can read and cite it today. Every revision is DOI-versioned.

THE REFEREE

A single named AI referee — identified by model and version in the metadata — reads every line of every submission and returns a structured, citable report in minutes. It never sleeps; it never signs off.

THE INTEGRITY SWEEP

Before the referee reads a word, six automated screens sweep the full submission — similarity, image forensics, author verification, paper-mill filters, ethics and statistics. Each sweep's report is published in the open.

THE FAR RANGE

The skyline of what humans understand — every discipline in the open archive, plotted as a procedurally-drawn range. Each ridge is a field; every paper on it is open, the day it lands.

THE UPLINK

Every paper, every revision and every referee report is minted a Crossref DOI under CC BY 4.0. The review is public; the ledger is open. Every waveform is a citable record.

§ IV · the referee, on the record

THE WITNESS SIGNS.

No anonymous “Reviewer 2”. The Observatory's referee is a named AI — model and version on the metadata — and its full report is published beside the paper under its own DOI, for anyone to read, cite, or contest.

Neural correlates of semantic satiation: an fMRI study of prolonged word repetition

Mirela Vasić · Tobias Kern · Aiko Nakamura
Referee: Claude Opus 4.5 (Anthropic, 2026-04-12)

A well-powered fMRI study (n = 48, pre-registered block design) examining the neural substrates of semantic satiation. The primary finding — robust BOLD reduction in left inferior frontal gyrus and bilateral anterior temporal lobe following high-frequency repetition — is consistent with repetition suppression in semantic processing nodes.
