Consensus

Unlock expert knowledge: AI-powered, ad-free research from 200M+ scientific papers

Consensus searches peer-reviewed scientific literature for students, researchers, and anyone who wants answers backed by studies rather than blog posts. The site calls it an AI academic search engine and a research OS: a place to find papers, organize them, and analyze what they say. The claim on the homepage is that this makes working through science roughly ten times faster than doing it by hand.

The directory listing adds that the search is ad-free and draws on more than 200 million scientific papers. The homepage shows labels for Sources, Corpus, Deep, and Filter, which suggests you can narrow results and dig further into specific papers rather than stopping at a summary.

Filed under education as a research assistant and search engine, Consensus offers a free tier with paid plans. Students and researchers who need citable sources for a question should start with a plain-language query and check which filters apply to their field.
