AI for systematic literature review — search 125 million papers, extract data into tables, and screen at scale.
Freemium
Summary
An AI research assistant over 280 million papers — chat with PDFs, run literature reviews, and decode dense text.
Description
SciSpace helps researchers get through papers faster. Its Copilot sits alongside a PDF and explains any passage you highlight — the maths, the method, the jargon — in plain language, which is the difference between reading a paper outside your field and giving up on it.
Main features
- Chat with a paper. Ask questions about a specific PDF and get answers grounded in that document.
- Literature review. Search across 280+ million papers and build a comparison table of methods, results, and limitations.
- Deep review for structured, multi-step analysis of a research question across many sources.
- Explanation of anything highlighted — equations, tables, figures, and terminology.
- Citation and paraphrasing help for writing up, including format conversion.
- AI detector and humaniser tools aimed at academic writing workflows.
Who uses it
Graduate students, researchers reading outside their specialism, and anyone facing a reading list longer than the time available. The highlight-to-explain interaction is the feature people keep.
Free tier covers limited daily use; paid plans add unlimited chat, higher upload limits, and the full review toolkit. Available on web and mobile with a browser extension.
