Our impact metric can be compared across fields. Install the browser extension to use Scholarometer!

After installation, you will see the Scholarometer panel at the top right-hand side of any Google Scholar profile page.

Scholarometer is a great tool, it shows impact in a universal (cross-field) way and the field tagging data is publicly available via an API.
