About SciTrack
Manage Your Research from Idea to Publication in One Platform
SciTrack is a modern research-management platform built for busy clinicians, academics, and research teams. We provide structured workflows that take you from initial ideas through protocols, projects, tasks, notes, manuscripts, and submission tracking—all in one place, with built-in collaboration and mobile-friendly access.
Mission & Vision
Our Mission
To give researchers a single, structured platform that reduces chaos, eliminates scattered files, and provides clear accountability from the first idea to final publication. We believe research deserves the same organizational precision found in modern project-management tools—without the overhead or complexity that gets in the way of science.
Our Vision
We envision research teams working seamlessly across institutions and time zones, with full visibility into project status, clear ownership of tasks, and a publishable audit trail that journals and ethics boards can trust. SciTrack aims to become the operating system for modern research—enabling faster, more transparent, and more reproducible science.
The Problem We Solve
Research teams face persistent challenges that slow progress and introduce risk. We built SciTrack to address these pain points head-on:
The SciTrack Approach
We use a simple, repeatable 4-step workflow that mirrors how research actually happens:
Capture Ideas
Start with a research idea inbox. Log every concept, hypothesis, or "what if?" in one place. No friction, no formatting—just capture it.
Turn Ideas into Protocols
Use our Protocol Generator to select a study-design template, fill in the required fields, and export a Word document ready for ethics-board submission.
Execute Projects with Tasks & Notes
Promote the protocol to a full project. Break work into tasks, assign deadlines, attach files, and track progress with stages and timelines. Collaborate with your team via messaging.
Prepare Manuscripts & Track Submissions
Store manuscript drafts, log journal submissions, track review status, and link published works with DOIs—all within the same project context.

Our Values
These principles guide how we build SciTrack and serve the research community:
Clarity
Research is complicated enough. We believe tools should reduce confusion, not add to it. Every feature is designed to make workflows clearer and more transparent.
Accountability
Tasks belong to people, deadlines are visible, and progress is tracked. We help teams know who's doing what, when, and why.
Research Integrity
We support reproducible, auditable workflows. SciTrack doesn't replace ethics boards or peer review—it helps you meet their standards.
Speed Without Chaos
Structure accelerates progress. When everyone knows the workflow, research moves faster and with fewer errors.
Collaboration
Great research happens in teams. We build features that encourage sharing, feedback, and collective ownership without sacrificing individual contribution tracking.
Respect for Privacy
Your research is private by default. You decide what to share, when, and with whom. We don't monetize your data or sell it to third parties.
Security & Privacy
We take a security-first approach to protecting your research and personal data:
Encryption in Transit
All data is transmitted over HTTPS/TLS to prevent interception.
Password Hashing
Your password is hashed with bcrypt and never stored in plain text.
Access Controls
Role-based permissions ensure users only see what they're authorized to access.
Secure Backups
Regular automated backups protect against data loss and enable disaster recovery.
User-Controlled Sharing
You decide who can view or collaborate on your projects and content.
Private by Default
Research content is never public unless you explicitly choose to share it.
What's Next
We're actively developing new features based on user feedback. Here's what's planned:
