Search engine that answers questions using peer-reviewed research papers
Boston, US

About
Consensus is an AI search engine for scientific research. Users ask a question in plain English, and it finds relevant peer-reviewed papers and summarizes what they say. Eric Olson and Christian Salem founded the company. It is based in Boston.
Each answer lists its source papers with links, so users can check the original studies. The Consensus Meter shows how many studies support or oppose a yes or no claim. Filters narrow results by study type, sample size, field and journal. A Deep Search mode writes longer literature reviews. A study snapshot pulls key details from a paper, such as population, methods and outcomes. Users can save searches and export citations.
There is a free plan with limits on advanced features. The Pro plan gives unlimited searches and more summaries, and there are plans for teams and universities. Students, academics, doctors and science writers use it to find evidence quickly.
