ResearchRabbit indexes over 310 million academic papers and uses AI-driven recommendation algorithms to surface semantically and citation-wise related literature from a seed set of papers. The platform provides interactive graph-based visualizations of citation networks and author clusters, enabling users to identify research gaps and topical evolution at a macro level. It integrates natively with Zotero, allowing bi-directional sync of collections, and organizes user-curated paper collections alongside notes for a structured research workflow. The web app requires no installation and is accessible via any modern browser.
