AI-powered visual discovery of scientific knowledge
Every search produces an interactive concept map in which related research outputs are grouped into labeled, clickable clusters instead of a single flat list.
Searches more than 400 million records in over 400 languages pulled from more than 11,000 sources through the BASE aggregator.
Beyond journal articles, results span datasets, software, images, and other research objects, giving a broader picture of a topic.
Maps are generated from metadata rather than synthesized text, so what you see corresponds to real indexed records.
AI research platform for reading, understanding and writing scientific papers
Open or upload a paper and ask questions, get plain-language explanations of highlighted passages, and pull out methods, results and limitations conversationally.
Search a large scholarly index spanning Google Scholar, PubMed and arXiv, then generate structured literature reviews and related-work sections from what you find.
An AI Writer for drafts, a paraphraser for academic tone, and a citation generator that formats references in popular styles.
Turn tables and results in a paper into structured data, and check whether a manuscript reads as AI-generated with a built-in detector.
