Get Recommendations from Reviewer Finder
What is Reviewer Finder?
The Reviewer Finder is an AI-powered tool designed to help you identify qualified peer reviewers for manuscripts submitted to your journal. This premium feature analyzes manuscript content and suggests potential reviewers based on their research expertise, publication history, and topical relevance. By streamlining the reviewer discovery process, the Reviewer Finder helps you build strong editorial boards and maintain efficient peer review workflows.
Please note: The Reviewer Finder is available as a premium feature for JAMS users. If you'd like to enable this feature for your journal, please contact our team at support@jams.pub.
Instructions
Step 1: Access the Reviewer Finder
Navigate to the manuscript processing page for any manuscript currently in Under Review status. On this page, you'll find a link labeled "Get Reviewer Recommendations." Click this link to launch the Reviewer Finder.
The Reviewer Finder will open in a new browser tab, displaying a list of recommended reviewers generated specifically for your manuscript.
Step 2: Review the Recommendations
Once the Reviewer Finder page loads, you'll see a table of suggested reviewers. Each recommendation includes key information such as the reviewer's name, institutional affiliation, research areas, and relevance score.
Step 3: Filter and Sort Results
To refine your search, use the filtering options located in the top left of the page. You can filter recommendations by criteria such as institutional type, or expertise area.
Additionally, you can sort the recommendations using the controls located above the table header. Sort by relevance score, publication count, or other metrics to prioritize the most suitable candidates.
Step 4: Examine Individual Recommendations
Click on any reviewer recommendation to open a detailed profile. This expanded view provides deeper insights into the reviewer's background, including their recent publications, citation metrics, and areas of specialization. Use this information to assess whether the reviewer is a strong match for your manuscript.
Step 5: Add a Reviewer to Your Manuscript
When you've identified a suitable reviewer, copy their email address from the Reviewer Finder page. Then, return to the manuscript processing page in JAMS and paste the email address into the manual reviewer addition field to invite them to review your manuscript.
Please note: This manual process is temporary. We are currently developing a full integration that will allow you to add recommended reviewers directly from the Reviewer Finder interface with a single click. This enhancement will be available in a future update.
You’re all set!
