Elicit

Elicit is an AI research assistant that automates the mechanical parts of a literature review. It searches a corpus of more than 138 million academic papers, screens them against inclusion criteria, extracts data from full text into structured tables, and writes research reports that follow a process modeled on systematic reviews, with every claim tied to a sentence level citation in a source paper. It is aimed at researchers in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, academia, policy, consumer goods and technology who need to know what the evidence already says before investing in new work. The Research Agent runs multi step questions, Research Reports produce briefs with adjustable scope, and the Systematic Literature Review workflow screens thousands of papers and extracts data points at scale; the vendor cites capacity of up to 1,000 relevant papers and 20,000 data points in one run. A Library stores sources for reuse, Alerts watch for new papers on a topic, and an API is available on paid plans. Pricing is published in four tiers.
