Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about getting your manuscript submission-ready.
How does the compliance engine work?
An AI agent reads your manuscript against your target journal's submission guidelines and flags every formatting, citation, figure and writing-quality issue — each shown inline as a tracked change you accept or deny.
Is my manuscript kept confidential?
Yes. Your unpublished research stays in an encrypted pipeline (AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit). We never train on it, share it, and you can delete it whenever.
Can I change my plan at any time?
Yes — upgrade, downgrade or cancel from your dashboard. Per-paper purchases never expire; subscriptions are prorated.
What journals do you support?
Our database includes over 45,000 peer-reviewed journals across STEM, Humanities, and Social Sciences. Institutional users can request custom template matching for niche publications.
Do you replace human peer review?
No. Manuscriptly is editorial-assistance class — it gets your manuscript submission-ready and compliant. The journal's reviewers still make the call.
What file formats can I upload?
DOCX and PDF for the manuscript, plus images, tables and supplementary data. We return a corrected, journal-ready manuscript you can download.
