One of the most common questions we hear from authors is “How does Cureus publish so quickly without compromising quality?”

In an academic publishing environment where peer review decisions often take months, Cureus has taken a deliberate approach to designing a technology-optimized process that respects the time of both authors and reviewers while maintaining rigorous editorial standards. Our newly launched informational peer review page outlines how Cureus combines streamlined workflows, thoughtful automations and technology, and human editorial oversight to support timely, constructive, and accountable scientific evaluation.

The Cureus peer review model is structured and collaborative. Manuscripts are matched with relevant experts based on specialty and keywords, reviews are completed directly within the platform, and editors assess feedback to ensure it is professional, appropriate, and aligned with journal standards. All manuscripts receive at least two independent reviews, with timelines driven by reviewer engagement rather than artificial delays.

Authors’ testimonials across specialties and regions highlight the clarity, efficiency, and constructive nature of Cureus' peer review, particularly its emphasis on meaningful feedback and speed.
