Research rarely happens in one sitting. 🐰 Every search you run in ResearchRabbit is saved automatically, so you can come back to it later and pick up exactly where you left off.
What gets saved
Each search is saved as a Search Journey: your base map, plus every Rabbit-hole you opened along the way. Searches you start from a collection are saved too.
How to find a past search
Pinned searches appear on your home page, under Pinned, so the ones you use most are always one click away.
All your searches are in Search History. Open it from your home page, then click any search to reopen it, just as you left it.
How to pin a search
There are three ways to pin a search to your home page:
From your home page: click the pin icon next to the search.
From Search History: select one or more searches, then pin them to your home page.
From inside a search: click the rabbit icon at the top left to open Journey Home, click Edit, and switch on Pin to Search History.
How to rename a search and change its settings
Open a search and click the rabbit icon at the top left to go to Journey Home. Then click Edit. From there you can:
Rename it. Type a new name in Journey Name, such as the topic, chapter or research question it’s for, so it’s easy to find next time.
Auto-save your Seeds. Choose a collection, and the Seeds in this search are saved to it automatically.
Auto-grow your map. When this is on, ResearchRabbit finds new results each time you add Seeds.
Your changes show up straight away on your home page and in Search History.
How to delete searches
Open Search History from your home page.
Select the searches you want to remove. You can select several at once.
Click Delete. You’ll see a warning before anything is deleted, so you can check first.
How long searches are kept
Free plan: your searches from the last 7 days.

💡 Want to keep the papers you find for good? Save them to a collection, or switch on Auto-save so your Seeds are saved for you. Collections stay in your library on every plan. See Organizing your articles with collections.
Common questions
Can I get back a search from more than 7 days ago?
On the free plan, searches older than 7 days no longer appear in Search History. Any papers you saved to a collection stay in your library, so you can start a new search from that collection. With RR+, all your searches are kept.
What’s the difference between Search History and my collections?
Search History keeps your searches, including the maps and Rabbit-holes you explored. Collections keep the papers you’ve chosen to save. To keep a paper, add it to a collection.
Does deleting a search delete my saved papers?
No. Deleting a search removes it from your Search History, but any papers you’ve saved to a collection stay in your library.
