For Researchers

Earn travel grants while contributing to your scientific legacy through connected knowledge bricks.

Document your complete research journey with integrated validation workflows—from reproducible systematic reviews to claim reproducibility checks—capturing the reasoning, discussions, methods, and data that drive rigorous, traceable and excellent science.

Get Recognition & Career Advancement

ORCID-linked attribution for code, data, reviews, discussions, and validated contributions across your research process. Build credentials with verified, traceable work.

Access Merit-Based Travel Grants

Earn credits for quality contributions and redeem for conference attendance, research visits, and networking opportunities—funded by organizational subscriptions at no personal cost.

Make FAIR Practices Effortless

AI-enhanced PRISMA systematic reviews and seamless Zotero integration. Structured guidance makes compliance easy while working with your existing research toolkit.

Create Stackable Knowledge Bricks

Document complete research pathways—what worked, what didn't, and why. Enable others to build new hypotheses on your reasoning while preventing duplicate efforts.

Enable Brick-Level Validation

Use CodeCheck, StatCheck, and AI-assisted evaluation to validate specific brick rather than requiring complete end-to-end reproduction.

How the Credit System Works

Credits reflect relative contribution value - a PRISMA systematic review (150 credits) is worth 7.5x more than a basic claim (20 credits). Actual travel funding depends on total annual fund size divided by all credits earned.

Current Status (June 2025):

Fund Balance: €3,000 (initial seed funding)
Credits Earned: 0
Credit Value: Will be calculated as organizations join and contributors earn credits

Earn Credits Through Quality Contributions

20 credits Publish structured research claim
50 credits Publish with linked and curated datasets
75 credits Publish with reproducible code/software
150 credits Complete PRISMA systematic review
100 credits Publish complete reproducible package (data + code)
50 credits Successfully reproduce scientific claim
10 credits Research output gets cited
40 credits Contribute to consensus-building discussions and peer review
