ARRIVE 10 Essential Report FAQ

Assessing a manuscript’s compliance with ARRIVE is a valuable way for researchers and journals to identify when key information is missing from it. To date, ARRIVE compliance assessment could only be performed manually, using the ARRIVE compliance questionnaire. Automating this process facilitates the inclusion of ARRIVE assessments in journals’ manuscript workflows, as well as the auditing of reporting practices by funding organisations or universities.

The compliance checker has been developed by the ScreenIT consortium, a group of developers led by SciCrunch, a California-based company focused on initiatives to improve research reproducibility. SciCrunch develop and operate platforms such as the Resource Identification Initiative, the Antibody Registry, and SciScore, a popular scientific manuscript review tool that uses the same technology that will be implemented in the ARRIVE compliance checker.
