Literature Review

Define a search scope, organize literature and evidence, and write a sourced review.

Available in app
Tabbed reference volumes surround a comparative review notebook.

Overview

Literature reviews done to method — systematic, scoping or narrative. Define the question and search plan, retrieve across academic sources, screen records in and out with counts at each stage, deduplicate and merge by DOI and identifiers, extract per-study evidence tables, synthesize into text and check citations against sources. The queries and eligibility criteria stay in the documents so anyone can re-run them.

Citation checking works only against records already retrieved: what can be verified is verified, what can't is marked missing, an unreachable database is named rather than glossed, and nothing is paraphrased from text that was never fetched.

The deliverable is a full review kit in your workspace: protocol, screening record, evidence tables and a drafted review.

Where it helps

  • Produce a review protocol with search strings and eligibility criteria
  • Screen two hundred candidates into a core set with PRISMA counts
  • Build per-study evidence tables and synthesize a review draft
  • Check every reference's DOI and provenance before submission

Examples

Examples describe the request and the shape of the expected deliverable; they are not completed run results.

Example prompt

Systematic review for 'effects of dry farming on soil bulk density': search plan and in/exclusion criteria first, then dedup and screen, with counts at each stage.

Expected output

A re-runnable protocol, screening results with counts and the corpus; unreachable sources named, not glossed.

Example prompt

Verify every citation in this draft against the retrieved records; list title/author/year mismatches and mark anything unsourced as missing.

Expected output

A per-citation verification table with suggested fixes; missing fields stay missing — no fabricated pages or years.
