I read from google that you can add your research work by going to the dropdown menu at the top right corner. however, there is no option to add papers. see attached file
Dear Adnan Muhammad Once having an account, you can add papers. According to their FAQ section you need to follow the steps:
“How do I add my publications to Semantic Scholar?
If you are an author who would like to see your content in Semantic Scholar, you can submit papers for indexing once you've successfully claimed your author page.
Visit your author page settings by selecting 'Edit Author Page' on your claimed author page or by selecting 'Settings' from the dropdown menu under 'Account' in the top right corner.
In your author page settings, select 'Add Papers'.
Search for your paper. If your paper is not discoverable on Semantic Scholar, at the bottom of the search results select 'Add a paper that does not exist in our corpus'.
Paste a link to a publicly accessible PDF of your paper from an open access source.
Select 'Add' to submit.
For new paper index requests, please allow 2 weeks for processing. We will do our best to ensure your paper is added. Please note, however, our indexing process is automated and designed to ensure we're including the highest quality research in our corpus.
[However - Ed.] We are unable to add non-academic papers, copyright protected content, or papers that require a login to access. We are also unable to add papers from social sites like ResearchGate, Academia.edu, and Google Scholar at this time. If you believe there was an issue with indexing your paper, please let us know.”
So certain documents (reports etc. but also papers of publishers that are published by publishers who are not belonging to their publishing partners: https://pages.semanticscholar.org/publisher-partners ) cannot be added at the moment. This might be the reason ... that the citation count in Semantic Scholar is significantly lower than other indexing services (though reasonably close to (at least my) WoS/Clarivate numbers).
If I recall correctly then most of the times the help team behind all this is responding pretty accurate (it only takes quite some time).
Best regards.
PS. Perhaps the little report I wrote about getting your work more visible is of any interest (it contains several tips I came aware of while trying to use all sorts of services):
