AI academic search engine for peer-reviewed science
Ask a research question in plain language and get answers synthesized from peer-reviewed studies, with each claim linked to its source paper.
A visual summary shows how the scientific literature leans on a yes/no question, indicating agreement, disagreement or mixed evidence.
Narrow results by study design, sample size, journal quality, publication year and more to prioritize high-quality evidence.
Aggregate findings across many studies into structured summaries that map what is known and where the gaps are.
An offline-first AI thinking space where notes, ideas, and AI reasoning stay aligned
The AI reads your note structure, links and current focus instead of only the last prompt, so answers stay anchored to the work in front of you.
Arrange information in dynamic blocks with a deliberately narrow visible focus (about five to seven items) that keeps attention on the current problem.
Notes are stored in your browser or desktop app, so viewing and editing work without a connection while AI features switch on when you are online.
Generate abstracts, Mermaid diagrams, LaTeX, SVG and HTML in place, then export to PDF, long images, Markdown or ZIP.
