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.
Turn spreadsheet data into custom choropleth maps and interactive embeds
Choose from world, continent, country, US state, county and ZIP code maps, each divided into regions you can color individually.
Paste from Excel, upload CSV, connect Google Sheets or Notion, or type a prompt like "color states by population" and let the AI map it.
Smart color scaling picks palettes and breakpoints for your dataset and generates a matching legend without manual configuration.
Publish a live map with tooltips, popups, click-through links, pan and zoom, then embed it via one line of code or by pasting the link into Notion, WordPress, Ghost or Substack.
