How CoChat solves it

Complete Research Workflow
Search to Submission

Six capabilities purpose-built for the way researchers actually work — not a general-purpose chatbot bolted onto your bibliography.

One search. Seven databases. Real results.

Query CrossRef, OpenAlex, PubMed, arXiv, Semantic Scholar, CORE, and DOAJ simultaneously. Every result carries verified metadata — real DOIs, real authors, real venues. Filter by year, field, and database. No more toggling between seven tabs.

Every DOI verified before it reaches your draft.

CoChat checks every citation against CrossRef in real time. Disputed or fabricated references are flagged automatically — before you cite them, not after your reviewer catches them. See verification badges on every source.

Literature reviews without the spreadsheet.

Build structured review tables with custom extraction columns — method, sample size, key findings, theoretical framework, whatever your review demands. Every paper in the table is verified against Semantic Scholar. Tag, filter, sort, and export to BibTeX, RIS, or CSV.

PRISMA-compliant from search to flow diagram.

Generate PRISMA 2020 flow diagrams and the full 27-item reporting checklist directly from your search results. Identification counts auto-populate from your database queries. Screen, include, and exclude — then export a publication-ready PRISMA figure.

Your entire corpus, searchable from any chat.

Upload 200 papers to a project. CoChat indexes every one and makes them queryable with RAG-powered retrieval. Ask a question — get an answer citing the exact passage from your own documents. Share the project with your lab.

An AI that knows your research program.

CoChat remembers your methodology, your inclusion criteria, your theoretical framework, and your database preferences — across every conversation, every session. No re-explaining your protocol. No re-uploading your corpus. Pick up where you left off, even weeks later.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

1. What is the best AI tool for scientific research?

The best AI research tools search real academic databases and verify every citation. CoChat searches seven databases simultaneously — CrossRef, OpenAlex, PubMed, arXiv, Semantic Scholar, CORE, and DOAJ — and verifies every DOI against CrossRef before it reaches your draft. Unlike general-purpose chatbots, CoChat builds structured literature review tables and PRISMA-compliant flow diagrams purpose-built for research workflows.

2. Can AI help with systematic reviews?

Yes. CoChat generates PRISMA 2020 flow diagrams and the full 27-item reporting checklist directly from your search results. Identification counts auto-populate from your database queries. You handle screening and inclusion decisions; CoChat handles the flow diagram, the box counts, and the export.

3. Which AI tool searches PubMed and arXiv together?

CoChat searches PubMed, arXiv, CrossRef, OpenAlex, Semantic Scholar, CORE, and DOAJ in a single query. Results are deduplicated and returned with verified metadata — real DOIs, real authors, real venues.

4. How do I know if an AI-generated citation is real?

CoChat checks every DOI against CrossRef in real time and shows a verification badge on each source. Disputed or unverifiable citations are flagged before you cite them — not after your reviewer catches them. You can also export your full bibliography to BibTeX or RIS and verify independently.

5. Is CoChat a Google Scholar alternative?

CoChat goes beyond Google Scholar by searching seven academic databases simultaneously, verifying every citation against CrossRef, and building structured literature review tables you can filter, tag, and export. Google Scholar finds papers; CoChat finds, verifies, organizes, and cites them.
