Tool Information

ResearchRabbit is an AI-powered literature discovery tool. Its official site says it analyzes papers you love and finds the research you have been missing, turning one paper into a map of ideas that shows how papers, authors and topics connect. The site's copyright line names Litmap Limited, the same company named on Litmaps.What problem it solves: keyword searches return long lists of papers without showing how they relate. ResearchRabbit starts from papers you already trust and expands outward through related work, citations and authors.What you can do (from the official site): - Use a paper as a seed to see how papers connect, identify what matters and discover related work. - Build a recommendation feed: add related work, new authors and emerging topics, and the site says the recommendations get more relevant as you explore. - Bring your reference library and ResearchRabbit together to map how your literature review connects. - Keep collections and share them with others to collaborate. - Use more advanced controls on the paid plan, such as multiple projects and Signals alerts to protect research integrity.Scale claims from the site: the homepage says it is trusted by 1,000,000+ researchers and gives access to over 320 million academic papers, while the pricing page says searches cover 310+ million articles. These are the vendor's own figures.Who it suits: students, researchers and librarians who want to explore a field visually, find key authors and spot gaps in the literature. Testimonials come from academics and university librarians.Pricing (researchrabbit.ai/pricing, checked 14 November 2026): Free at $0 forever with unlimited searches, an unlimited library and collections, collection sharing, up to 50 seed articles and core search settings.
