Proofig AI for Research Institutions: Uphold the Highest Standards of Scientific Integrity
Campus-wide automated image quality assurance that safeguards grants, reputations, and responsible conduct of research across every department.
Why Image Integrity Matters for Responsible Conduct of Research
Roughly one-third of life-science manuscripts contain image issues, many discovered only after submission. Research misconduct can cost institutions over $1 million in investigations, grant losses, and direct fallout, with the Office of Research Integrity frequently involved before reputational harm is even measured. With thousands of figures created across theses, manuscripts, and grant proposals, maintaining scientific integrity at scale is difficult. Without automated tools, image issues are often missed—jeopardizing funding, donations, reputation, and public trust in the institution’s commitment to responsible conduct of research.
Seven-Figure
Risk
A single retraction can cost more than $1 million in direct and indirect losses.
Automated Solution for Thousands of Images
Most image issues are impossible to detect with the naked eye. Fast-paced labs need solutions they can trust and that can manage high volume.
Institutional
Reputation
Public loss of trust undermines funding, rankings, and the university’s stance on responsible conduct of research.
Why Institutions Choose Proofig AI to Safeguard Scientific Integrity
Research institutions cannot directly oversee researchers’ manuscripts and images prior to submission, yet post-publication image issues directly harm institutional credibility—making automated image integrity solutions essential for proactive protection.
