About Consensus

Unlike standard ChatGPT or Google search which can hallucinate or pull from unreliable blogs, Consensus connects directly to the Semantic Scholar database of over 200 million peer-reviewed scientific papers. It is the ultimate research tool for academics, doctors, and students.

Core Academic Features

  • Evidence-Based Answers: Ask a question like "Does creatine improve cognitive function?" Consensus will read hundreds of relevant papers and generate a synthesized summary of the scientific consensus.
  • The Consensus Meter: For "Yes/No" questions, the AI analyzes the top papers and provides a visual meter showing what percentage of studies say "Yes", "No", or "Possibly."
  • Study Snapshot: The AI extracts the exact methodology of the paper, showing you the sample size, study type (e.g., Randomized Controlled Trial vs. Observational), and population demographics at a glance.
  • Copilot: An interactive chat feature that allows you to draft literature reviews, write academic outlines, and pull formatted citations directly from the database into your writing.
  • Citation Formats: Export citations instantly in APA, MLA, Chicago, or Harvard formats directly into your reference manager.

Why it matters

Consensus democratizes access to dense scientific knowledge. By relying strictly on published, peer-reviewed data, it guarantees that users receive scientifically accurate, hallucination-free research summaries.
