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.

Governed knowledge management for your people and your AI agents
Every document has an owner, an expiry date and an approval path, so knowledge stays verified and current rather than drifting quietly out of date.
Validity and expiration reminders, feedback management, review and multi-step approval workflows, plus gap and duplicate detection to surface what is missing or redundant.
Serve the same governed content to ChatGPT, Claude, custom agents and copilots through MCP, RAG, REST APIs and a browser extension, with citations and one permission model.
Multilingual editor, decision trees and automatic translation help distributed operations, service and IT teams answer in their own language.
