Persistent Identifier & Alif Index for a Smarter Scholarly Future

SEIPID is a scholarly registry infrastructure governed and operated by Xpertno Research Center (XRC), operating the Scholarly Entity International Persistent Identifier (SEIPID) system and the ALIF Index — A next-generation, integrity-led scholarly indexing and journal evaluation, classification, and citation-enabled indexing system.

Why SEIPID?

Scholarly Infrastructure Needs a Reset

Current systems were built for a different world — one where quality was assumed. SEIPID introduces an integrity-first approach to scholarly identification and journal eligibility.

Governance & What We Provide
  • Journal evaluation via Alif Index
  • Metadata-based SEIPID issuance
  • Public registry records (signals + status)
  • Classification pathway L1–L3
The Old Way

DOI is expensive: membership fees + per-DOI costs, unaffordable for many.

The SEIPID Way

SEIPID is free or significantly cheaper — designed for affordability.

The Old Way

Other indexing has a single tier: you’re either in or out. Most journals stay invisible.

The SEIPID Way

Alif Index has layers: Pre-Index → L1 → L2 → L3 — a path for every journal.

The Old Way

Citation tracking is opaque and controlled by corporations.

The SEIPID Way

Citation-enabled indexing with transparent, integrity-led algorithms.

The Old Way

Fragmented systems: PID, indexing, citations — disconnected workflows.

The SEIPID Way

Integrated ecosystem: SEIPID + Alif Index + X-PEN ID (connected trust layer).

The Old Way

Global South journals remain invisible.

The SEIPID Way

Built for inclusive, integrity-led scholarship — because good research happens everywhere.

The Old Way

No pathway for improvement & no support for small journals.

The SEIPID Way

Progressive growth, mentorship, and support pathways for global journals.

How the Ecosystem Works

Persistent Identification

Stable SEIPIDs that resolve to official public records for long-term citation and verification.

Public Registry Records

Each record stores trusted metadata and integrity signals in a consistent, traceable format.

Metadata-First Integrity

Structured metadata that supports discovery, archiving readiness, and clean scholarly linking.

Issued via ALIF Eligibility

SEIPIDs are enabled only after a journal passes ALIF Pre-Index and submits compliant metadata.

SEIPID as PIDs

SEIPID — Verified Records, Stable IDs

SEIPID is more than just an identifier — it's the backbone of an integrity-first scholarly infrastructure. Governed by Xpertno Research Center (XRC), the ecosystem connects persistent identification with quality evaluation.

Journals first enter through ALIF Pre-Index, where basic integrity standards are verified. Once eligible, they unlock the ability to assign SEIPIDs to their articles — stable, citable, and trustworthy identifiers that resolve to rich metadata records. From there, journals can progress through ALIF Index tiers (L1 → L3) , gaining visibility, citation tracking, and global recognition.

The Quality Gate for SEIPID

ALIF Index — Where Journals Earn Their Trust

Alif Index — a journal evaluation, classification, and citation database system for integrity-led scholarly publishing.

ALIF Index isn't just another journal listing. It's the integrity gateway that protects the SEIPID registry and gives journals a credible path to global recognition.

Minimum Integrity Gate

ALIF Pre-Index confirms baseline governance, transparency, and operational legitimacy before SEIPID issuance is enabled.

Global Visibility Signals

Structured evaluation signals help institutions, authors, and readers assess journal credibility and publishing maturity.

Growth Pathway (L1–L3)

Higher ALIF levels represent stronger performance, improved standards, and progression towards broader indexing readiness.

Trust + SEIPID Stability

ALIF evaluation protects the SEIPID registry by reducing metadata risk and improving long-term citation reliability.

Note: ALIF Pre-Index is an eligibility gateway — not an indexing claim.
Example SEIPID Record

Example: SEIPID in Action

Each SEIPID resolves to a public record that includes essential metadata, registry status, and reliable links—so readers, editors, and institutions can quickly confirm what they’re viewing.

The record can be updated without breaking citations, while the SEIPID remains stable as a long-term reference for the scholarly item.

  • Public metadata record
  • Registry status & signals
  • Stable resolution link
