Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• PeerJ: PeerJ runs open-access peer-reviewed journals in the life and health sciences under an APC/membership model, targeting the same global researcher audience with a smaller but more citation-impactful portfolio.

Direct peers

• Hindawi (Wiley): Hindawi ran a large open-access journal portfolio under an APC model across health and life sciences before its acquisition by Wiley; its scale and journal mix closely parallel TIJ's publishing approach.
• Frontiers: Frontiers operates peer-reviewed open-access journals across health, psychology, and clinical research under an APC model, directly overlapping with several of TIJ's journal titles and competing for the same author pool.
• Dove Medical Press: Dove Medical Press publishes peer-reviewed open-access journals in clinical medicine, nursing, and public health under an APC model, with a comparable journal portfolio in the health sciences that overlaps TIJ's specialty titles.
• MedCrave Publishing: MedCrave runs peer-reviewed open-access journals focused on medicine and health sciences under an APC model, comparable to TIJ in journal mix, scale, and target author community.
• Scientific Research Publishing (SCIRP): SCIRP is a smaller open-access publisher with a broad multi-disciplinary journal portfolio and APC model, similar in scale and positioning to TIJ and frequently referenced in discussions of emerging-market open-access publishing.
• Science Publishing Group: Science Publishing Group operates open-access journals across science, medicine, and management with an author-pays APC model, overlapping directly with TIJ's journal portfolio and target author segments.
• MDPI: MDPI is one of the largest open-access scholarly publishers with a similarly broad multi-disciplinary journal portfolio and an author-pays APC revenue model, making it the closest direct comparison for TIJ's operating model and target audience.

Broad incumbents

• PLOS: PLOS publishes well-known open-access journals in medicine, public health, and clinical research with established citation impact, operating an APC-funded model that competes for the same global pool of health-science authors as TIJ.
• BioMed Central (Springer Nature): BioMed Central is a pioneer of the open-access journal publishing model and now operates under Springer Nature; it serves the same author community with established Impact Factors across health and biomedical journals, representing a much larger incumbent in TIJ's space.
