Keruen
Five pillars
Every check, with its source
Where a check was decided by reading the journal's homepage or its ISSN Portal record, we keep what we read: the page's SHA-256 fingerprint, the time, and the words that decided it.

What this means for you
Major gaps or warning signs. Before submitting, ask the editor about the failed items; if your institution has a journal policy, this journal probably does not meet it yet.
10 things the journal should fix. We can send them the list with your name as the requesting author:
Watch this rating
Hear by e-mail and on your dashboard when this journal's grade changes, when its records cannot be read, or when a hijack or clone signal appears. Watched ratings are re-checked at least every 7 days. Free for up to 10 journals.

A dated one-page certificate of this rating with all sources, for a thesis or promotion file.
Open printable certificate ↗Take it with you
The facts on this page as JSON — the grade, the score, when it was rated and under which methodology, every check with its source and what we read, and the history. Free, no key; any website may read it.

Risk Radar
The other question — is this journal showing the behaviour that precedes delisting, hijacking or retractions? Fifteen written rules on the public record.
Score this journal →Show this rating on your site
Paste either piece into your own page — no key, no account, nothing to install. They show the public facts only: the grade, the date it was rated, and a link to every check behind it. When the rating changes, they change.
The badge — a small image that links to this page:
<a href="https://scholar.smartscholars.in/check.php?q=2078-8134" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://scholar.smartscholars.in/badge.php?issn=2078-8134" alt="Journal Trust Rating of Keruen" height="28"></a>
The card — a box with the grade, the score and the date, for a sidebar or a journal list (see it):

Before you submit
Journals now screen submissions for assistant-written text, paper-mill phrases, invented references and reused figures. See the same signals first, with the evidence — the manuscript is read once and discarded.
Manuscript Screen →Are you the editor?
Fix every item above with the Smart Scholars tools — Journal Audit, GetIndexed and DOI Doctor — and the rating updates on the next check: a rating older than 7 days is made again when it is opened, and you can re-check it at once from My journals.
Improve this journal →Three questions, if you run Keruen
Answer what you like; we reply from a person, about this record. Nothing here is shown anywhere.
