Elicit helps accelerate every step of a systematic review

Refine your protocol

Choosing the right review protocol is half the battle. Use Elicit to refine research questions and search strategies.

Elicit interface showing a research question about theanine and cognitive function with AI-suggested refinement tags.

Gather every source

Combine searches across PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, Elicit’s corpus of 138 million papers, or import from other databases.

Run reproducible keyword searches or use Elicit’s semantic search to ensure you don’t miss any relevant papers.

Elicit search results showing top papers with relevance and citation counts.

Screen each paper

Screen up to 40,000 papers in real-time.

Elicit autosuggests screening criteria and recommendations. You can agree, edit, or add your own.

Every decision is PRISMA-auditable with exclusion reasons, per-criterion scores, and supporting quotes. Dual review pairs two humans with AI assistance, or uses AI as the second reviewer

Elicit interface for title and abstract screening showing an AI-generated inclusion recommendation with detailed rationale

Extract data

Data extraction is one of Elicit's superpowers. Elicit has the most accurate data extraction of any AI product, including from tables and figures, where most clinical outcomes actually live.

We can extract both quantitative and qualitative data. Every extraction is supported by quotes or figures from the source.

Iterate with our AI-suggested data extraction templates, or create your own.

Synthesize the evidence

Elicit generates reports synthesizing across up to 200 papers, with each claim backed by sentence-level citations from the sources.

Use one of our built-in templates or customize one for your organization.

All reports contain a methods section with PRISMA flow diagrams, tables of paper summaries, and search strategies.

Elicit interface showing an AI-generated inclusion rationale for a paper on magnesium, featuring a pop-up window with supporting quotes and sentence-level citations.

Sentence-level citations

  • Elicit cites every AI-generated claim with the exact sentence or figure from the underlying paper.

    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!

What our users say

Being in rare disease, I search for data across decades of research. I need to compare evolving experimental designs, models, and conclusions. Elicit SLR dramatically reduces the time to get a good overview of the available studies. I can spend my valuable time working through the highlighted sources, understanding conclusions, and applying this knowledge to better my research questions.

Ultragenyx Pharmaceuticals

Using Elicit's traceable, explainable, and auditable Data Extraction module, I checked the accuracy of each data point in the text, detected unreadable files and unreported fields, highlighted gaps, and completed a rapid scoping review of over 100 studies in a day for a policy brief. Seeing is Believing.

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.
