Paperguide

Paperguide suits researchers moving from a reading question toward organized evidence and a cited draft. Search, PDF conversations and extraction tables sit near the reference manager. Use a small collection first, with a defined extraction question. Generated summaries should retain the paper's scope; a neat table is not evidence that every cell was read correctly.

A practical workflow

1. Define a narrow research question and locate relevant papers.
2. Add permitted PDFs or reference records.
3. Create a small extraction table with explicit fields.
4. Check each cell against the original paper before synthesizing.

Illustrative input

This example describes a task, not a tested output. Adjust the source material and settings to your own situation.

For these papers, extract study population, intervention, outcome and follow-up period. Use not reported where a field is missing.

Result check: Verify each extracted value, citation and page context; distinguish absent information from a negative result.

Access and alternatives

A continuing Free plan includes monthly AI credits and restricted search, reference and extraction capacity. Paid plans expand tables, collaboration, reports and systematic-review features. Some extraction features are labelled coming soon; check availability rather than assuming every advertised workflow is already included.

Choose another workflow when its emphasis fits better: SciSpace for another paper-reading workflow; Elicit for a different structured evidence approach.
