Manuscript checking for postdocs

Postdocs face unique publication pressures: high output expectations, independence from supervisor oversight, and often multiple simultaneous submissions. CheckMyManuscript provides a reliable, fast pre-submission check that catches the technical issues, structure, citations, metadata, formatting, that are easy to miss under deadline pressure. It's a low-friction quality gate that runs in under 2 minutes and costs $5 for a full report, far less than the cost of a desk rejection and resubmission delay.
