Consensus is an AI research platform for finding and synthesizing scientific evidence.

What Consensus does

Consensus is a scientific research platform for finding and understanding evidence from published papers. Users start with a research question and inspect the relevant studies behind a generated synthesis.

Search and evidence filters help narrow the literature to the research context. The platform connects answers to their sources and supports inspection of original figures, so users can move from an overview into the underlying findings.

Deeper research workflows build on the selected sources rather than relying on an unsupported general response. The product serves researchers and other evidence-focused users who need to compare what studies say, check the original material and continue investigating a question.
