The Unjournal is making research better by evaluating what really matters. We aim to make rigorous research more impactful and impactful research more rigorous.
The academic journal system is out-of-date. It wastes resources, discourages innovation, and encourages rent-seeking.
The Unjournal is not a journal. We don’t publish research. Instead, we commission (and pay for) open, rigorous expert evaluation of publicly-hosted research. We make it easier for researchers to get feedback and credible ratings of their work, so they can focus on doing better research rather than journal-shopping.
We currently focus on quantitative work that informs global priorities, especially in economics, policy, and social science. Our evaluation packages help policymakers and practitioners understand which research to trust and how to use it. These provide open critique and discussion to benefit students and the research community.
