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 document research that shows you exactly how it found each answer
Point the tool at a folder of files and ask questions across the whole set at once, rather than opening documents one by one.
Whenever it answers, Three Sigma shows you how it reached the answer, so results are verifiable rather than a black box.
Access Three Sigma through a plugin from within an existing ChatGPT account on every plan.
No document on hand? A free solo mode works like a normal chat assistant.
