What is ResearchRabbit?
ResearchRabbit is an online tool that helps you discover research faster, stay organized, and build a deeper understanding of your field. Whether you’re starting a new project or finishing a multi-year project, ResearchRabbit is designed to make the literature review process not just manageable, but enjoyable.
At its core, ResearchRabbit allows you to search for papers, explore connections across the literature, and organize what you find into collections that reflect your research journey.
What makes ResearchRabbit different?
Unlike traditional search databases or AI tools, ResearchRabbit is built around iterative discovery. Instead of dropping you into a flood of search results, ResearchRabbit helps you:
Discover quickly: Start with a keyword, paper, or collection and instantly get relevant results.
Search iteratively: Add papers you find interesting and watch ResearchRabbit refine your results, uncovering new directions as you go.
Stay organized: Use collections, colors, and labels to manage your topics, categories, and projects.
See the big picture: ResearchRabbit helps you go beyond one-off searches to build a comprehensive view of the literature around your topic.
What sets ResearchRabbit apart is that it’s not just a search tool. It’s a research companion that adapts as you explore, surfaces what matters, and helps you connect the dots between papers.
How does ResearchRabbit work?
ResearchRabbit uses a unique search engine built on academic metadata and citation links. Here’s how it works:
Start with a seed: Choose a paper, set of keywords, or topic.
Explore connections: ResearchRabbit searches the literature and brings back papers related by content and citations.
Iterate: Add the most relevant papers to your collection. ResearchRabbit learns from your choices and surfaces even better results.
Organize: Save articles and customize collections to keep everything structured as your project grows.
The process is fast, interactive, and comprehensive, since you can keep iterating until you’re confident you’ve seen the full scope of work on your topic.
