Explore the academic literature as a visual graph of related papers
Each graph places the seed paper among its most closely related works, clustered by how often papers are cited together or share references.
Separate perspectives show what a paper builds on and what later work builds on it, which is ideal for tracing a research lineage.
Start from a paper title, DOI, URL or proceedings link, so you can enter the graph from whatever you already have at hand.
A ranked list view lets you browse related publications by relevance when you need specifics rather than an overview.
AI-assisted systematic review software for screening, extraction, and evidence synthesis at scale
The Systematic Auto-Resolver deduplicates up to 200,000 references using your own inclusion and exclusion protocol with one click.
ResearchPilot delivers zero-shot relevance ratings, an AI Analyzer, an AI Reviewer, and auto-extraction to speed up search, screening, and data capture.
Work through title, abstract, and full-text screening with inclusion and exclusion tagging, conflict resolution, and blinded reviewer modes.
Capture structured study data with configurable extraction fields, apply PICO frameworks, and export results with auto-generated PRISMA diagrams.
