About BluSkyi

Bridging the Gap Between Academic Research and Professional Practice

Our Story

For a number of years, research has had to demonstrate societal and professional dissemination and impact. Not only to secure funding, but so that findings and results make it out of the labs and corridors of academia, for the greater good of society at large.

With a combined 50+ years of experience in the academic publishing space, co-founders Martin Delahunty and Peter Day identified a need for a new platform to better achieve this critical objective – BluSkyi.

AI & Editorial Governance at BluSkyi

At BluSkyi, we use AI to monitor thousands of peer-reviewed journals and structure complex academic findings into accessible, practical summaries for industry practitioners.

But AI never operates unchecked. Insight Articles undergo human editorial verification to safeguard against hallucinated data and ensure direct alignment with the source paper. We also invite the original researchers to verify Insight Articles based on their work.
