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.

AI product shortlists and natural-language shopping filters
Type a product name or category and get a ranked shortlist of the top five options with short justifications.
Add filters expressed in everyday language — price, features, intended use — instead of fiddling with rigid dropdown menus.
Each recommendation comes with a brief explanation, so you understand why an option ranks where it does.
Install once from the Chrome Web Store and call it up whenever you are browsing, without leaving the page.
