Cabells launches Journalytics STEM database
Cabells, a US-based information services company, is launching Journalytics STEM, a new addition to its suite of database products designed to support researchers and institutions in optimising publication decisions.
Journalytics STEM builds on the model established by Journalytics Academic and Journalytics Medicine, extending Cabells’ coverage into key engineering and STEM disciplines. The new database includes more than 7,800 journals across 26 STEM subject areas, including geology, chemical engineering, physics and mathematics.
The database provides a range of data points drawn from both unique and licensed sources, aimed at helping researchers assess where to publish and evaluate journals within their fields. These include:
- CCI – Cabells’ influence score based on citations within a journal’s discipline;
- Altmetric – an influence score based on wider digital impact measures;
- Scite Smart Citations – analysis of the extent to which articles are supported or criticised;
- Submissions data – including acceptance rates and time to publication; and
- Peer review metrics – a collection of data points relating to process and time to review.
Access to Journalytics STEM will be available via subscription immnediately. The new product will also be integrated with Predatory Reports, giving subscribers access to both journal evaluation data and tools aimed at safeguarding research integrity.
Cabells Chief Executive Officer Lacey Earle said: “This is a major development for Cabells, and one we have been working on for several years with our teams of technical and journal experts. We know from speaking to our customers how much they value accessing such a wide range of publication data points in one place, and we are delighted to now be able to support the STEM community with this new product.
“This is Cabells’ second major launch in the last 12 months following hot on the heels of CompassAI, which has been extremely well received by the research community. The launch of these new products shows Cabells’ dedication to improving the resources available through university libraries and helping the wider community mitigate the increasing problems presented by research integrity issues.”
Cabells currently indexes more than 13,000 journals in its Journalytics Academic database and more than 9,000 in Journalytics Medicine, in addition to listing over 20,000 titles in Predatory Reports. Journalytics STEM will be introduced at a number of library and engineering conferences during 2026.
