Exact Boolean, visually
Build AND/OR/NOT groups with pills instead of syntax. Terms you add, AI suggests, or import from vocabularies are tracked separately — your query is never silently changed.
Autonomous scholarly discovery
Turn your research idea into a live map
Boolean and semantic search across scholarly sources, citation snowballing, interactive literature maps — and background monitoring that keeps discovering new work after you close the browser.
Live research signals
new today
high relevance
open access
connected sources
ResearchRadar continuously monitors connected scholarly sources and detects records as they become available through those sources, subject to source indexing latency, API limits, licensing, and access policies.
Snowball in every direction
Expand any paper backward (references), forward (cited by) and laterally (semantic + shared authors) with depth, relevance and year limits. Every step records its discovery method.
A living research map
Nodes sized by influence, coloured by cluster, glowing when new. Timeline, author and journal views. Versioned so you can compare what changed.
Monitoring that runs itself
Server-side scheduled polling (hourly to weekly) normalises, deduplicates, scores and detects new records — even when nobody is logged in.
Explained alerts
Tiered notifications (immediate, digest, library-only) with a 'why relevant' explanation for every recommendation — no black boxes.
Legitimate access only
Metadata from public and licensed APIs; full text only where open or where your institution entitles you. Credentials live server-side, never in the browser.
