Research expertise. Augmented.

Your research.
Your intellect.
Masters of the craft.

Search, merge and de-duplicate across major academic sources (OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, Crossref, arXiv, DBLP, CORE, DOAJ and expanding) with zero pre-indexed lag, automatic translation, citation graphs, lists and timelines, document uploads, notes and drafting, plus audio uploads and transcriptions, voice search and dictation, AI-generated-text detection, Zotero and bring-your-own-AI integration.

Want to go further? Securely plug in your own local or API-driven AI model, such as Ollama or LM Studio. It operates strictly within your provided sources, map and draft, so it only ever sees the specific text you give it — and every response is strictly verified against those sources for zero hallucination and full compliance with your workflow.

470M+WORKS INDEXED BY OPENALEX
200M+PAPERS ON SEMANTIC SCHOLAR
9LIVE SOURCES, NO CORPUS TO GO STALE
Figures are each source's own reported coverage, not a combined total — the same paper is often indexed by more than one.

Everything you need to trace a body of work

No corpus to wait on, no index to keep current — every search and every expansion is live against sources that are already comprehensive.

Live citation graph

Seed a map with one paper, expand its references and citing papers with a click, and switch between graph, list, and timeline views of the same data.

Federated search

One query, merged and de-duplicated across nine academic sources — OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, Crossref, arXiv, DBLP, CORE, DOAJ, HAL, and J-STAGE — no need to search each database separately and reconcile the results yourself. Automatic British/American spelling-variant expansion means "colour" also finds "color," "organise" also finds "organize," and so on — so it works the same whether you're searching from the US, UK, South Africa, or India. Type a query in any language and it's also translated and searched in English behind the scenes, so results aren't limited to one language on either side.

Abstract-only summaries

A short extractive summary generated from the abstract by our own pipeline — never a third-party model, never the full paper text.

Search and dictate by voice

Speak a search query straight into the search box — runs entirely in your browser, nothing sent to a server to transcribe it.

Upload your own paper

Got a scan, a preprint, or something the indexes don't have? Upload it — OCR extracts the text and references and adds it as a node on your map.

Saved maps

Save a citation map to your account and come back to it later, exactly as you left it.

Learn more →

Notes & drafting

Write in a full-page document editor, with citations linked directly to specific papers on your map — not just embedded links in free text.

Learn more →

Teams & collaboration

Form a team, set who can edit or just view, and write the same draft together live — or share a single note with one person and skip the team entirely.

Learn more →

Zotero

Connect your Zotero library with a personal API key — push a paper straight into it, or pull your library in as seed candidates for a new map.

Learn more →

AI-generated-text detection

Nine independent statistical/stylometric signals plus a classifier model, run on an uploaded document — advisory only, explained in plain language, never a single blended score.

Built by Cohere Solutions, drawing live on OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, Crossref, arXiv, DBLP, CORE, and DOAJ — plus an optional in-house legal database for case law and statutes — every result links out to the publisher or DOI so you read it through your own access, not ours.
