Get quick summaries, answer research questions, and extract key information from academic papers — using Generative AI.

GenAI research assistants help you interact with academic literature in a new way. Instead of manually reading dozens of papers, these tools use AI to generate summaries, highlight key points, explain complex sections, and even answer questions based on the research they’ve indexed.

They don’t replace critical reading or proper literature searches — but they can speed up early exploration, help you understand unfamiliar topics, or assist in drafting review tables.
