ResearchBuddy.app

ResearchBuddy is an app that simplifies the literature review process by surfacing the most relevant information. It offers automatic literature search, abstract extraction, and key point summarization, so instead of reading paper after paper you can scan what matters and go deeper only where you need to. It also provides convenient search and export functions so you can keep and organize what you find. It is aimed at students, researchers, and institutions that need to screen and organize papers efficiently. A free trial is available, with a paid premium version for more.

Only a free trial is offered, after which a paid premium version is needed, and that pricing can change. Automated summaries are a shortcut and can miss nuance, so do not skip reading the original papers for anything central to your work. Coverage depends on the sources the app searches, so it may not surface every relevant paper. Use it to speed up the first pass of screening, then verify the key sources yourself before you cite them. Processing speed depends on file size and network conditions, so retry later if a task stalls during peak hours. Run one full task end to end first, then expand once you are comfortable with the workflow and the result quality.
