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.
Moonshot AI's long-context assistant for research, coding, and agentic work
Feed in lengthy documents, papers, or code and ask questions across the full text without losing earlier context.
Hand over multi-step jobs that involve planning, browsing, and tool use instead of only single-turn answers.
Generate structured research reports, slide decks, and formatted documents directly from your prompt or source files.
Extend capabilities with plugins and set recurring jobs so the assistant keeps working between sessions.
Delivers powerful reasoning and broad file analysis, but with smaller default context limits for raw documents.
