Academic data and comparisons for universities.

Data on every academic in a department, collected automatically from public sources. See where each fact came from.

What you get

Built from official rosters.

Every department’s people come from its own directory, with rank and tenure status.

Work beyond DOIs.

Citation figures come from public scholarly citation profiles. Those include books, chapters, working papers and reports, which DOI-matched databases can miss.

Nothing for your staff to submit.

Collection is automatic, with no rosters or reports to send, and it can be refreshed at any time.

A source on every fact.

Every appointment, degree, honor and figure links to where it came from. Missing information is shown as missing.

My Institution processes CVs.

My Institution processes CVs sent privately by your university, with the supporting passage beside every extracted fact. Nobody has to type the records in, and each institution sees only its own data.

Linking CV records to the public data is in development.
