Careers at Consensus
We are building the best search engine for scientific research ever created. Come join our growing team.
Our vision & mission
Our mission is to make expert knowledge discoverable and consumable for everyone.
Scientific research is the most valuable source of knowledge humans have ever created. Yet, there is no easy way to search and consume it. Combing through the literature is the most laborious part of a researcher’s process and is purely out-of-reach for any non-academic. We aim to change this.
Our traction
Since launching our search engine in the Winter of ’22, we’ve grown to 500k monthly active users and >$3M in annualized revenue. Our revenue grew over 1200% in 2024.
We are funded by $15M in venture capital by some of the best investors in the world like Union Square Ventures, Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross. Consensus has been covered in the press by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, Fortune and more…
