JournalScope

Find the right journal for your manuscript

Paste your title and abstract. JournalScope compares it against the research scope of 30,000+ Scopus-indexed journals and explains every match using Scopus, SCImago (SJR) and ABDC 2025 data.

How it works

  1. Scope mapping — your text is matched to 4,500 research topics, then to journals that actually publish on those topics (OpenAlex publication profiles).
  2. Quality signals — SJR, quartile, H-index and citations per document (SCImago) plus the ABDC rating are added for each journal, each with a link to the source so you can verify it.
  3. Justified ranking — each recommendation explains the scope fit, metrics, ranking status and any cautions.

Journal lookup

Search any journal by title or ISSN to see its scope profile, metrics and ABDC status.

AI-written justifications optional

The built-in explanations work offline. Add a Google Gemini API key to also get a narrative assessment of your top matches. The key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and your abstract is sent directly to Google — never to this site.
