Submitted on Monday, accepted by Friday, online with a DOI the following Monday. I have never seen a serious journal turn around a paper this fast without sacrificing review quality.
The reviewer comments were genuinely constructive and arrived in days, not months. The APC is the most affordable I have seen for an open-access venue with a Crossref DOI.
An ideal venue for agentic AI and CPS research. The submission portal is clean, the editorial team is communicative, and the open-access policy makes our work genuinely accessible.
Sample reviews. Real testimonials will replace these as the journal grows.
