Metadata-Resolvable Persistent Identifier Infrastructure
Scholarly Entity International Persistent Identifier (SEIPID) system offers everything you expect from a persistent identifier — stability, resolution, metadata — at a fraction of the cost and is governed and operated by Xpertno Research Center (XRC).

SEIPID - A Persistent Identifier Infrastructure
SEIPID is more than just an identifier — it is a persistent, metadata-resolvable digital identifier assigned to scholarly objects, enabling long-term identification, structured discoverability, and independent bibliographic representation through an infrastructure-level resolution layer.
Unlike redirect-only PID systems, SEIPID maintains an independent metadata landing record that remains accessible even if the publisher’s website becomes unavailable or changes. This ensures persistence at the level of scholarly identity and metadata integrity, rather than at the level of content hosting, maintaining legal compliance while preserving discoverability and citation continuity.
- Stable, citable SEIPIDs for articles, datasets, theses, & more
- Metadata-based SEIPID issuance
- Affordable PIDs
- Integrated ecosystem
The Old Way
Many journals worldwide remain invisible due to cost, unaffordability, and complexity.
The SEIPID Way
Built for inclusive, global scholarship — affordable and accessible to all.
The Old Way
Redirect-only resolution & Dead site = dead discovery
The SEIPID Way
Resolution + metadata fallback & Dead site = metadata mirror
The Old Way
Minimal metadata stored for citation use only
The SEIPID Way
Comprehensive metadata capture including abstract, references, and structured bibliographic details

SEIPID — Verified Records, Stable IDs
SEIPID is designed for a digital-only scholarly future to embrace the reality that scholarship today is created, shared, and consumed digitally. By prioritizing digital entities over print, we reduce the environmental footprint of academic publishing — less paper, less waste, more access.
A SEIPID follows a simple but powerful structure: [PREFIX]:[NAMESPACE]:[SUFFIX] — three segments, separated by colons, each serving a specific purpose in the identification chain.
