PaperSignal

Track manuscript progress across major publisher portals, including Editorial Manager, MDPI, and Nature Portfolio.

PaperSignal gives researchers one private dashboard for manuscript submission progress. Check Springer Nature, ScholarOne, Taylor & Francis, and Wiley from one place, or add another manuscript website yourself. PaperSignal records status changes locally, shows how long each paper has remained at its current stage, and preserves a history you can review later. Features: - Refresh supported publisher dashboards from one extension. - Track the current page or select the exact status and history elements. - Add custom manuscript websites with an optional CSS selector. - Hide and restore papers without losing their existing history. - Download a printable HTML report or open a pre-addressed email draft. Privacy: PaperSignal has no backend, analytics, or advertising. Manuscript data and settings remain in Chrome local extension storage. Data leaves the browser only when you intentionally download a report or open an email draft. You must remain signed in to each publisher portal for PaperSignal to read your dashboard.
