Why Authors Choose
Αlpha¹
Traditional peer review takes 6–14 months, demands formatting edits that don't change conclusions, and requires you to surrender your copyright. Αlpha¹ focuses exclusively on what matters: the reproducibility, validity, and significance of your science.
Guaranteed 21-Day Peer Review
Receive expert peer reviews within 21 days of submission, or the publication fee is automatically waived. Get the citable Αlpha¹ Reviewed Publication credential in time for your next grant or promotion application.
Focused on Scientific Rigor
Our compensated Expert Reviewers evaluate reproducibility, validity, and significance — not formatting, style, or minor experiments that don't change core conclusions.
Full Copyright Retention
You retain complete copyright and publishing rights. Submit to any traditional journal concurrently — our review is based on your posted preprint, and nothing sits behind a paywall.
