Datarsoft Publishing House officially launches with Ten International Journals.
An independent international academic publisher headquartered in Ahmedabad. Our inaugural portfolio of ten peer-reviewed open-access journals spans engineering, life sciences, medicine, humanities, management, education, and law — each architected to meet Scopus and Web of Science evaluation criteria.
Full transparency on every article. Every journal.
The first publisher to offer complete public transparency on two things no other publisher discloses: the lifecycle of every article and the indexing status of every journal.
CAPABILITY 01
Article Lifecycle Transparency
Every article has a public lifecycle page showing every step with verifiable timestamps.
Exact submission date and time
Plagiarism check result and similarity score
Editor assignment and editor profile
Reviewer count, type of review, and review duration
Why this matters: No other publisher discloses this. Researchers, funders, and institutions can independently verify the quality and timeline of any paper we publish.
CAPABILITY 02
Indexing Lifecycle Transparency
Every journal has a public indexing dashboard showing exactly where it stands in every database pipeline.
Current active indexing (with verification links)
Applications submitted (with date and reference)
Under-review status (with expected decision window)
Rejections (yes — we publish these too, with reasons)
Re-application timeline if applicable
Target databases by Year 2 and Year 3
Eligibility criteria status for Scopus, WoS, PubMed
Citation count milestones for impact factor pathway
Geographic author distribution metrics
Editorial board international composition
Why this matters: Most publishers hide indexing failures or falsely claim listings. We disclose everything — including our rejections. Authors know exactly what they get.
OUR TRANSPARENCY PLEDGE
"If we ever misrepresent indexing or article history — we will close the journal."
We have built our entire publishing operation on a principle other publishers cannot match: every claim we make about an article or a journal is independently verifiable. If we ever publish a false claim, we close that journal and refund every author.
Nine reasons researchers, institutions, and editorial boards choose us — not us telling you we're good, but objective standards you can verify.
01
14-Day Publication
From submission to indexed publication in 14 days, with full double-blind peer review.
02
Rigorous Peer Review
Double-blind review by two qualified experts. iThenticate plagiarism screening at intake.
03
Scopus & WoS Future-Ready
Every journal built from day one to meet Scopus & Web of Science evaluation criteria.
04
Authors Retain Copyright
CC BY 4.0 by default. Authors keep copyright. Reuse, share, and self-archive without permission.
05
100+ Integrations
Every scholarly identifier, indexer, archive, payment rail, and AI tool — natively integrated.
06
Institutional Foundation
Built by Datarsoft Tech — partner of UGC-INFLIBNET, SWAYAM, NIRF, and 48+ universities.
07
Permanent Preservation
CLOCKSS + Portico archival. Articles survive permanently — even if we cease operations.
08
Editorial Independence
Strict separation between commercial and editorial decisions. Waivers evaluated independently.
09
Global Reach, Indian Focus
International boards, Global South research weighting, UGC-aligned standards for Indian recognition.
UGC & AICTE Quality Framework
We follow all rules
and regulations of UGC & AICTEguidelines.
Every journal follows the rules and regulations of UGC and AICTE, the UGC 2025 framework for credible journals, and ICMR ethical guidelines — alongside COPE, DOAJ, ICMJE, and OASPA international standards.

Rigorous peer-review and editorial quality
Experienced and credible editorial boards

DOI-enabled scholarly publishing standards

Future-Ready Architecture
Engineered for Scopus
and Web of Science.
Most publishers wait, then scramble to retrofit. We did the opposite. Every journal is architected from day one to satisfy every Scopus & WoS evaluation criterion.
When evaluation eligibility opens (typically Year 2–3), we apply with a portfolio that already passes the technical, ethical, editorial, and metadata bars.

The Difference
What makes our journals better.
A 12-point checklist to separate legitimate publishers from predatory ones. Hold us — and any other publisher — up against it.
If a publisher fails any item below — be cautious before submitting.
CrossRef DOI. Every article receives a persistent DOI through paid CrossRef membership — not a fake identifier.
COPE-compliant ethics. Published policies on plagiarism, authorship, COI, AI use, retractions — aligned with COPE flowcharts.
Transparent operations. Editorial timelines, decisions, indexing status — all publicly disclosed.
No spam outreach. We don't mass-email solicitations. We don't promise unrealistic timelines. We don't list editors without consent.
CC BY 4.0 licensing. Standard open-access license. Authors retain copyright. No exclusive transfer required.
CLOCKSS + Portico preservation. Dual archiving. Articles survive even if the publisher does not.
Plagiarism + AI content screening. Every submission checked at intake by iThenticate and AI-detection.
Verifiable physical address. Real office in Ahmedabad, India — not a PO box or hidden location.
Indexing transparency. We publish exactly where each journal is indexed, applied, rejected — no false claims.
Article lifecycle transparency.World first. Every article's full history publicly visible.
Indexing & Abstracting
Where your work will be found.
Every article indexed in major databases from publication date, with transparent active applications to leading subscription indices.

A note on indexing honesty
Many publishers falsely claim Scopus or Web of Science indexing on day one. We will not. Major indexes require 2+ years of publication history, citation evidence, and international editorial diversity before evaluating. We are building all of these — transparently — and we will tell you the moment any journal achieves listing. No lies, no exaggeration, no fine print.
Editorial Process
From submission
to publication in 14 days.
A clear, time-bound workflow. Every step documented, every deadline honored, every timestamp publicly visible on the article's lifecycle page.
OUR COMMITMENT
"Published within 14 days — or we publish the reason why, and a revised timeline. Every time."
14-day commitment, full quality
Fast-track publication does not mean skipped peer review. Two independent qualified reviewers, full plagiarism screening, copyediting, and JATS production all happen within the 14-day window — through parallel workflows, not shortcuts.
D 0
Submission & Triage
DAY 0–1
Manuscript submitted through ORCID-authenticated portal. Editorial office checks completeness, formatting, and scope fit. iThenticate + AI-content screening runs automatically.
D 2
Editor Assignment & Reviewer Invitations
DAY 2–3
Subject editor assigned. Two qualified reviewers invited in parallel, matched on expertise (ORCID + Publons history). Track in dashboard.
Accept · Minor Revision · Reject. For minor revisions, authors have 24-48 hours to respond. Decision rationale always included.
D 12
Production: Copyedit, Typeset & Proofs
DAY 12–13
Copyediting, JATS XML + PDF + HTML typesetting, figure quality check. Author proofs delivered for sign-off within 24 hours.
D 14
Publication, DOI Activation & Indexing
DAY 14
Article published online. CrossRef DOI activated. Metadata pushed automatically to Google Scholar, BASE, OpenAIRE, ROAD, Dimensions, CLOCKSS — all within 24 hours of publication.
Major revisions extend the timeline. If reviewers require major changes, the 14-day clock pauses while authors prepare a revised manuscript. Both timelines — original and extended — appear on the article's lifecycle page. Full transparency, always.
Our Ten Journals
