ResearchHub offers two ways to earn ResearchCoin in one place. You can hold ResearchCoin to earn daily yield through the ResearchHub Endowment, where your balance accrues funding credits used to fund science, or you can complete paid peer reviews on papers and proposals that need expert evaluation.

"ResearchHub compensates researchers for peer-reviewing scientific preprints. Unlike traditional academic peer review, which is typically unpaid and can take months, reviews on ResearchHub are paid $150 each after quality check from established researchers, with turn-around times of around 10 days.

Browse open peer-review bounties below to find papers or proposals in your field of expertise. Each listing includes the paper, reward amount, and submission deadline. When you find a match, submit a structured review following our peer review guidelines. Reviews are evaluated by the requesting author or our editorial team, and approved submissions receive compensation promptly.

Quality peer review is essential to the scientific process, and we believe reviewers deserve to be compensated accordingly. By attaching real compensation to reviews, ResearchHub incentivizes faster, more thorough feedback — feedback that helps authors strengthen their work and helps readers assess new research. Reviewers also build a public track record of contributions that strengthens their academic profile over time.

Whether you are a graduate student engaging with the latest research, a postdoc building your review track record, or an experienced scientist who wants fair compensation for work you would do regardless, ResearchHub makes peer review worth your time. Browse the open bounties to get started. Researchers are not required to use any peer reviews and funding opportunities never use peer reviews to gatekeep. Instead, peer reviews on ResearchHub are to provide the audience of authors, funders, and users with context about the research and ways it can improve.
