SciSpace by PubGenius Inc.
Your AI assistant to discover and understand research papers
SciSpace is one of those indispensable services for modern researchers. It’s actually a collection of different AI-powered tools that together make researchers’ lives that much easier.
For instance, it is a search engine curated for science, providing relevant answers from 272 million papers. Some of the questions you can ask include “How does climate change impact biodiversity?”, “Why are aging COVID patients more susceptible to severe complications?”, “How does social media affect the college selection process?”, “What are the interesting theories about dark matter and dark energy?”, and so on and on.
In addition, SciSpace lets you upload a research paper (PDF) and get answers backed by citations.
Speaking of citations, the tool provides a generator for them. Pick a source — upload a file, paste text or enter a URL — and select a citation style. There are more than 2,500 citation styles to choose from, including popular ones such as American Psychological Association 7th edition, Modern Language Association 9th edition, Begell House – Chicago Manual of Style, Elsevier – Vancouver, and many others.
There is also the Scholarly Paraphrasing Tool that can make your academic writing more clear, allowing you to write in more tones and languages than the popular rephrasing tool Quillbot.
Plus, we have an Academic AI Detector that can catch GPT-generated content and the ever-handy Chrome extension that lets you bring SciSpace’s tools with you across the web.
