HENDERSON, Nev., July 29, 2025

The Award, Presented At The SSP EPIC Awards Ceremony, Acknowledges Research Solutions' Impact In Revolutionizing How Researchers Discover, Validate, & Cite Scientific Work

HENDERSON, Nev. , July 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Research Solutions  (NASDAQ: RSSS), a leading provider of AI-powered scientific research tools, announces that Scite's Smart Citations technology has been recognized with the 2025 Gold Award for Excellence in Publishing by the Society for Scholarly Publishing (SSP) in the Hosting Platforms Feature category. The prestigious award from the scholarly publishing industry's premier conference highlights Scite's transformative role in addressing the research reproducibility crisis and making peer-reviewed research more accessible across industries and institutions.

The recognition underscores Research Solutions' unique approach to building Smart Citations technology through strategic partnerships with dozens of leading publishers. These direct indexing agreements enable comprehensive coverage across disciplines, providing researchers with intelligent tools to assess the reliability and context of cited research regardless of institutional affiliation or funding limitations. By partnering directly with publishers, Research Solutions ensures that Smart Citations technology delivers the most complete and accurate citation analysis available in the market.

Built on Research Solutions' extensive publisher partnerships, Smart Citations deliver contextual information about how research has been cited—whether findings have been supported, contradicted, or merely mentioned. This comprehensive publisher coverage enables researchers to make more informed decisions about the reliability of scientific claims.

Research Solutions' publisher partnership model provides access to millions of full-text articles through indexing agreements with leading publishers alongside Open Access content, ensuring comprehensive coverage that competitors cannot match. This robust dataset, further enriched with author, affiliation, and topic metadata from CrossRef, DataCite, and OpenAlex, enables Smart Citations' intelligent algorithms to analyze citation networks and identify trending research, emerging controversies, and consensus-building studies.

Detailed citation analysis helps combat common challenges in scholarly publishing, including citation manipulation, superficial referencing, and the propagation of unreliable research findings. The technology also provides researchers with a more nuanced understanding of the research landscape than traditional citation metrics alone. This capability is essential as the volume of published research continues to grow, making it increasingly difficult for researchers to stay current with developments in their fields.

SSP's EPIC Award recognition validates Research Solutions' broader mission to enhance the quality and accessibility of scientific research through innovative technology and strategic publisher partnerships. Smart Citations are part of the company's comprehensive suite of research tools designed to support evidence-based decision-making across academic, industry, and policy contexts.

The recognition reflects the scholarly publishing community's growing acknowledgment of the need for more sophisticated tools to navigate the complex research ecosystem. As concerns about research quality and reproducibility continue to mount, solutions such as Smart Citations represent essential infrastructure for maintaining public trust in scientific research while supporting the broader goals of open science and evidence-based practice across sectors.
