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.
Find and fix problems in your AI agents before users do
See every message, tool call and decision in a run, with inputs, outputs and durations, so you can pinpoint where a run broke down.
Recurring failures are grouped into issues with severity, affected users, last-seen time and a confidence score, instead of scattered alerts.
An agent investigates issues and automates follow-up across Slack, the web app and MCP, so debugging happens where your team already works.
Run scenarios against a change on a pull request and compare results with real traffic to catch regressions before merge.
