Audience
Students and independent researchers who want an AI assistant that retrieves and summarizes scientific papers to answer questions based on real academic literature
About Sci-Bot
Sci-Bot is an AI-powered research assistant built on top of Sci-Hub, designed to answer user questions by directly searching and analyzing scientific literature instead of generating responses from general training data. It works by scanning a vast database of full-text academic papers and extracting relevant findings to produce answers grounded in published research, often including references and links to the original studies. It presents itself as a simple interface where users can ask questions in multiple languages, and the system automatically searches for relevant keywords, retrieves academic articles, and synthesizes information into a structured response. It follows a step-by-step process similar to a human researcher, showing intermediate searches and sources before delivering a final answer. A key focus is on reducing hallucinations by relying on existing scientific papers rather than purely generative outputs, and it can provide direct access to full-text documents.

Noteweave
Noteweave is an Intelligent Research Machines platform that helps teams go from research to executable production plans. It is built to stress-test scientific research, translate papers into validated experiments, and run R&D faster from one research-first workspace. Deep Analysis pressure-tests methods, evaluations, and robustness so failure modes surface before they reach production, helping teams detect production faults in academic papers pre-emptively, find missing evals, set up discrepancies, or misleading robustness trends, and identify technical faults faster. Explore searches across millions of papers, datasets, and code repositories, then synthesizes them into runnable production plans with traceable evidence. Noteweave helps users discover relevant research signals across 3 million+ AI/ML publications, optimize plans against constraints such as GPU utilization, translate academic methods into reproducible steps, and validate evaluation strategies more reliably.
