Research Rabbit

ResearchRabbit is an AI-powered scholarly publication discovery tool designed to support researchers in their unstructured searches. This web-based application allows users to discover publications related to one or more seed publications through visualization maps and lists of earlier, later, and similar publications, providing a left-to-right trail from the original publication(s) through any selected authors or publications.

Key features:

- Visualization Maps: Presents publication recommendations in two modes - Network View (displaying interconnected publications) and Timeline View (plotting publications by year).
- Unstructured Searching Workflow: Supports exploration starting from a seed publication, allowing users to navigate through related authors and citations.
- Publication Recommendations: Offers suggestions based on citations and AI algorithms, including similar work, earlier work, later work, authors, and suggested authors.
- Collaboration Networks: Depicts networks of collaborating authors through visualization maps.
- User Interface: Generally navigable by keyboard and screen reader, with some limitations due to information density.
- Cost and Availability: All features are free to use and accessible via a web browser.
