Elicit Science

Elicit is an AI research assistant designed to help researchers conduct systematic literature reviews more efficiently. It uses machine learning to read and analyse academic papers, extract relevant data, and identify patterns across large bodies of research. Rather than manually scanning hundreds of papers, you can upload documents or search academic databases directly through the tool, and Elicit will help you categorise findings, spot contradictions, and synthesise results. The tool is particularly useful for academics, PhD students, and research professionals who need to review extensive literature as part of their work. It handles the tedious initial screening phase of literature reviews, which typically involves reading abstracts and deciding which papers are relevant to your research question. By automating this process, researchers can focus their time on deeper analysis and critical evaluation of the most relevant studies.
