(22 Apr 2026) Cactus Communications (CACTUS) has announced a partnership with Imagetwin to integrate automated image integrity checks across its research and publishing solutions. As part of this integration, Imagetwin is embedded within Paperpal Preflight, CACTUS’ editorial integrity and workflow efficiencies solution, where it operates seamlessly, allowing users to run image integrity checks with minimal effort and without introducing additional steps into existing workflows.
With this integration, CACTUS further strengthens its comprehensive manuscript assessment capabilities within Paperpal Preflight. Alongside existing modules such as SmartScreen, IntegrityGuard, and PeerPilot, the platform now includes ImageCheck, powered by Imagetwin, enabling deeper and more holistic evaluation of manuscripts across both textual and visual elements.
After evaluating multiple providers in the space, CACTUS joined hands with Imagetwin based on its detection quality, scalability, and ease of integration. The partnership enables publishers, editorial teams, and researchers to screen figures for duplication, manipulation, plagiarism, and AI-generated content as part of their standard workflows.
