What it is for. ResBench collects research outputs that are, or will become, public — the publications, projects, patents and events that institutions report in their annual activity reports. Do not enter information that must stay secret; mark unpublished patent applications as confidential, and they are handled separately.
The software. ResBench is developed and operated by Cristian Petcu, who owns all rights in the software. Access is given through your institution; it does not transfer any right in the software.
Institutions. An institution that wishes to use ResBench designates a representative, who agrees the terms of use directly with the author.
Validation. Submissions are checked automatically: the text you enter, with the declared title, first author and year, is sent to a language-model provider through OpenRouter. Attached files are not sent, and items you mark confidential are not sent at all.
Keep your own copies. ResBench is a working tool, not an archive. Download your reports every month (Excel, Word, CSV or JSON) and keep them in your institution's records.
What is stored. Account data (name, email, institution, role), the activities you submit and the documents you attach, and the technical logs needed for security. It is stored on servers operated by the author, in the European Union. Account emails (for example, password reset) are sent through Google's mail service. Nothing is sold and there is no advertising.
Your data. It belongs to your institution and can be exported at any time. For corrections or deletion, contact your institution administrator or [email protected].
