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.
Highlight text and get answers straight from the context menu
Works with any page: highlight a word or phrase and use the context menu to submit it.
The selection is sent to a remote service that searches a JSON file for a corresponding answer.
Results appear immediately in a browser alert so you can read them without leaving the page.
Small, focused add-on that does one job: fetch relevant information for the text you selected.
