Universities, libraries and research institutions can give their students and staff ResearchRabbit+ (RR+). 🐰 Here’s how institutional access works, how to switch it on, and what to do if your institution isn’t set up yet.
How institutional access works
If your institution has access, anyone who uses an email address from your institution’s domain (for example, name@university.edu) gets RR+ automatically. Some institutions start with a free trial, so everyone can try RR+ before they subscribe.
How to switch it on
Sign up, or sign in, with your university email address.
Verify your email. If the email doesn’t arrive, check your junk folder and add no-reply@verify.researchrabbit.ai to your safe senders. See Didn’t get your verification email?
You’ll see RR+ next to your profile icon at the top right.
Already signed up with a personal email? Change it to your university address. See Change your email address.
Is your institution not set up yet?
We’d love to work with your university. The best thing you can do is put us in touch with your library:
Find the right person. This is usually someone in your library who looks after e-resources or subscriptions, or your subject librarian.
Share our details. Send them our institutions page or cc us using institutions@researchrabbit.ai.
Let us know. Tell us your institution’s name through Support Chat, so we can follow up.
💡 Libraries listen to their students and staff. A short note on how ResearchRabbit helps your research goes a long way.
In the meantime, you can use the free plan, or upgrade to RR+ yourself. See How to upgrade to ResearchRabbit+, and check whether a country discount applies to you.
Common questions
How do I know if my institution has access?
Sign up with your university email address. If your institution has access, RR+ is switched on for you. You can also ask your library, or check with us through Support Chat.
I signed up with my university email, but I don’t see RR+. What should I do?
Check that you’ve verified your email. If RR+ still isn’t showing, contact us with your email address and the name of your institution, and we’ll look into it. See How do I get support in ResearchRabbit?
Is there a student discount?
ResearchRabbit+ is already priced with students in mind, so there isn’t a separate student discount. You may be eligible for a country discount, though.
I’m a librarian. How do I find out more?
We’d love to hear from you. Get in touch through our institutions page, and we can talk through access and a free trial for your institution.
