ResearchRabbit is a tool for finding connections between academic papers. Instead of a linear list, it builds a literature map: which works are similar, which authors are connected, and which publications are worth reading next. It complements Elicit and Consensus well when you need not only to find an answer, but also to see the research landscape. To compare it with other tools, open the selection of AI tools for research papers.
A topic map instead of a chaotic list of links
