SAN FRANCISCO, April 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Impactio (https://www.impactio.com/) recently unveiled its unique platform ability that helps researchers and established engineers catalog all of their personal academic contributions, allowing them to digitally visualize how and where each of those contributions are used in research pursuits across the globe. Impactio provides easy-to-use tools that generate these powerful analytics reports whenever needed, enabling researchers to share their research impact with potential employers, research institutions, universities, grant review boards, collaborators and colleagues. Impactio is America's leading platform of academic impact analytics and reputation management designed for Ph.D.s, scientists and established engineers.

"Impactio is a comprehensive, full-service academic impact analytics and reputation platform developed for 21st century Ph.D. professionals," said Lawrence Shay, CEO and co-founder of Impactio. "These sorts of academic impact reports are crucial for researchers and scientists. Such reports are persuasive ways to illustrate just how important a researcher's contributions are within any given field, and this information can be the difference between being hired or not, getting funding for the next project, or qualifying for advancement and awards. Normally, it's a long and tedious task to single-handedly identify and collate the information needed for these reports. But Impactio has made it easy."
