A free, AI-powered academic search engine for 240M+ papers across every scientific field
Search 241 million-plus publications from every scientific field using natural-language queries that match meaning rather than exact keywords.
Each indexed paper gets a one-sentence machine-generated TLDR so you can triage results before committing to reading the full text.
An augmented PDF reader that highlights citations, definitions, equations and figures inline, and shows which later papers cited the passage you are reading.
See how a paper was cited, whether citations were influential, and which references shaped the work — useful for literature reviews and citation chasing.
Measure engineering work and AI's real contribution to it.
Brings AI metrics, DORA and SPACE-based benchmarks and developer feedback into one view so you can see where work stalls from prompt to production.
Relates AI-assisted usage to merges, quality and cost, with per-engineer AI usage and AI score reporting plus benchmarks against 1,000+ organisations.
Connects token and prompt spend to engineering output so you can see what you are getting for every AI dollar spent.
Weave Router classifies each prompt and routes it to the model with the best quality-per-token, learning from team feedback over time.
