About Orclever
Orclever is an open-access academic publishing platform built for researchers, editors, and institutions who want a modern alternative to legacy OJS deployments — without giving up on rigor, DOIs, or indexing.
Our mission
Academic publishing is still dominated by closed, expensive platforms that treat researchers as the product. Open-source alternatives like OJS solve the access problem but feel stuck in the early 2000s — clunky submission flows, poor indexing, broken integrations, no modern editor.
Orclever was built to bridge that gap. We give journal editors a platform that looks and feels like a modern SaaS product, while producing the exact metadata that Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, and DOAJ expect. DOI registration with Crossref is one click. OAI-PMH is built in. Author profiles connect to ORCID. References are parsed automatically.
The platform is designed around three principles: rigorous peer review, machine-readable metadata, and a submission experience that authors actually enjoy.
What we host
Peer-reviewed journals
Open-access journals with full editorial workflow — submission, reviewer assignment, decision management, and typeset PDF production. Each article gets a DOI deposited to Crossref.
International conferences
Conferences with structured call-for-papers, submission management, committee pages, and proceedings published in indexed Orclever journals.
Researcher profiles
Public profile pages with ORCID verification, institutional affiliation, publication history, and Scopus / Web of Science IDs — a lightweight alternative to standalone academic CVs.
Academic education
Short courses covering scientific writing, peer review ethics, research methodology, and academic career skills — taught by practising editors and researchers.
Built on open academic standards
Every journal on Orclever publishes with the infrastructure that scholarly databases and abstracting services rely on.

Author verification and works publishing.
Metadata harvesting endpoint for DOAJ, BASE, and CORE.

Founder
Orclever was founded by Prof. Dr. Zeki Oralhan, an academic with years of editorial experience who wanted a modern publishing platform that treats authors, reviewers, and editors with the respect they deserve. The platform is actively developed with input from editors and researchers who use it daily.
