how it works
Elicit helps accelerate every step of a systematic review
Refining the research question
Asking the right question is half the battle. Use Elicit to refine and specify your research question.

Gathering sources
Search across 138 million papers with a single query. Combine papers from Elicit Search with papers you found from other search methodologies.
Depending on the type of systematic review you are doing, you may want to use our semantic search as supplement to traditional keyword-based searches, which are more reproducible but can miss important papers that don't have exact keyword overlap.

Title & abstract screening
Elicit autosuggests screening criteria based on your research question. You can also add custom screening criteria from your protocol.
We then use AI to screen titles and abstracts, saving researchers over 80% of the time it takes to screen papers manually.
Using AI lets us be more rigorous than manual screening in some ways:
You can see how a paper scored on each individual screening criteria, not just whether it was screened in or out overall.
Every screening decision comes with detailed rationale and supporting quotes from the paper.
You can refine and test criteria on a pilot set before running on all papers. This is great for scoping reviews and improving protocol design.

Data extraction
Data extraction is one of Elicit's superpowers. Elicit has the most accurate data extraction of any AI product.
We can extract quantitative and qualitative data, including data presented in tables. Every extraction is supported by quotes or tables from the underlying paper.
Iterate with our AI-suggested data extraction templates, or create your own.

Reports
Elicit helps with but does not fully automate the writing step. Today, Elicit can summarize up to 40 papers into a report.
Our reports contain a methods section with a mini-PRISMA diagram, tables of paper summaries, and frequency counts across study types.
Again, every claim is backed by sentence-level citations from the original papers.

Sentence-level citations
Elicit cites every AI-generated claim with sentence-level citations from the underlying papers.
Other AI tools only link to references. They make you read the entire paper to figure out where the AI answer is coming from. Sometimes, the information is not even in the cited source!

Dynamic screening & extraction
Sometimes you don't know which papers you want, or what information you want from them, until you see what's out there.
Elicit's interactive screening & data extraction help you explore the literature in real-time so that you can refine what you're looking for.

Accuracy & precision
We've rigorously trained and validated Elicit's accuracy. Elicit can analyze detailed information such as PFS, adverse effects, and detailed interventions or outcomes by trial arm at levels of accuracy exceeding human extraction.

Vision
Can AI take systematic reviews to the next level?
Conforming to today's guidelines is necessary. But some of those guidelines were designed around the constraints of doing work manually. How can AI enable even more impactful evidence synthesis?
Living reviews
Combine Elicit Systematic Reviews and Alerts to create living reviews - easily updating systematic reviews with new information every year, or as needed
Transparency for free
Once you finish your review, you can share a link to the entire process and intermediate results with anyone, even someone who does not have an Elicit account. The recipient can review every step you took.
Iterative protocol design
It's hard to define your review protocol without knowing what research is or is not out there.
An automated approach helps you iterate and test different criteria quickly before committing to one.
Resuable data
The real treasure is the papers we reviewed along the way.
Doing your reviews in Elicit makes it easier to reuse some of the papers you painstakingly reviewed in other projects.
