Literature Reviews in Minutes.
New discoveries are made at the edge of what’s already known. Every scientific breakthrough stands on a mountain of prior knowledge.
To accelerate discovery, we have to make this mountain of knowledge easier to climb. At Consensus, our mission is to help researchers to spend less time searching and more time pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
Today, we’re launching Deep Search to close that gap.
Consensus Deep Search is a research agent that conducts full literature reviews across 200 million scientific papers in two minutes. It’s designed to help you get up to speed on a research topic or question faster than ever before—whether you’re validating a new idea, identifying knowledge gaps, or surfacing key evidence.
To use Deep Search, simply toggle to “Deep” mode using the drop-down on the bottom left of the search box.
Comprehensive Literature Searching.
Deep Search breaks down your research question into a structured multi-step search strategy, just like a researcher would. It investigates foundational work, explores counterpoints, and surfaces adjacent threads to give you a clear picture of where the science stands.
Behind the scenes, it runs up to 20 targeted searches across our corpus (spanning 150 languages and 6,000 scientific fields), reviews over 1,000 papers in detail, and selects the most relevant ones for detailed analysis.
Custom AI-Generated Reports.
Once we’ve selected the top papers, our AI models get to work on generating you a comprehensive cited report of the top 50 papers. The report follows the structure of a traditional literature review—complete with introduction, methods, results, and discussion.
It also includes interactive AI-generated visuals that show the consensus among the research, highlight key authors, extract key claims and their supporting evidence, and show where the research gaps may be.
Using Consensus Deep Search Today
The best way to understand how a Consensus Deep Search works is to see it in action. Check out these examples of a Deep Search:
- Compare permissive & authoritative parenting styles for development outcomes
- Is poor sleep associated with greater dementia risk?
- Does the MMR vaccine cause autism?
To use Deep Search, simply toggle to “Deep” mode using the drop-down on the bottom left of the search box.
Deep Search Pricing
Deep Search is available today for both free and Premium users:
- Free users get 3 Deep Searches per month
- Premium users get 100 Deep Searches per month
- This exact amount will likely change after our beta period. We are looking to get as much feedback during this period.
