is a unified platform for discovering, evaluating, and tracking computer science conference and journal venues. It aggregates public ranking and bibliometric data into an accessible, interactive interface backed by programmatic APIs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="key-features"&gt;Key Features&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conference &amp;amp; Journal Rankings&lt;/strong&gt; — Complete CORE / ICORE rankings (A*, A, B, C) with historical tier tracking, side-by-side with SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) quartiles (Q1–Q4), H-index, and FoR discipline categories.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Venue &amp;amp; Journal Suggester&lt;/strong&gt; — Abstract-matching engine using TF-IDF and discipline lexicons to recommend stretch, target, and safe venues for an upcoming paper.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Deadlines &amp;amp; Watchlist&lt;/strong&gt; — Submission countdowns normalized to Anywhere on Earth (AoE), with 1-click Google Calendar sync, &lt;code&gt;.ics&lt;/code&gt; export, and zero-login local browser watchlists.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Acceptance Rate Trends&lt;/strong&gt; — Decades of acceptance statistics (submitted, accepted, rates) for leading venues across systems, AI/ML, security, databases, theory, and graphics.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h3 id="built-for-ai-agents"&gt;Built for AI Agents&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ConferenceRank is machine-consumable out of the box:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MCP Server&lt;/strong&gt; (&lt;code&gt;npx conferencerank-mcp&lt;/code&gt;) — Exposes six typed tools for MCP-compatible agents: &lt;code&gt;search_venues&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;get_venue&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;compare_venues&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;suggest_venues&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;upcoming_deadlines&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;acceptance_stats&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Static JSON API&lt;/strong&gt; — CDN-cached endpoints for conferences, journals, and upcoming deadlines, regenerated on weekly automated GitHub Actions runs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Agent Skill &amp;amp; &lt;code&gt;llms.txt&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; — Ships full instructions and machine-readable context for agentic workflows.&lt;/li&gt;
