Elicit Systematic Reviews

by Elicit

Searches 138M academic papers and clinical trials, then runs full systematic reviews with per-stage CSV exports.

Academic Literature & CitationsOfficial source
Summary
Per-stage exports are what make a machine-run systematic review defensible.

A systematic review is only credible if someone can inspect what was searched, what was screened out and what was extracted. Returning CSV and XLSX per stage means the process is auditable rather than a black box that produced a conclusion — which is the difference between something you can cite and something you cannot. resume_session is the practical touch: reviews are long, quota runs out, and being able to continue rather than restart matters.

What it is

Elicit's endpoint for their research platform. Eight tools, and the two that matter are asynchronous: a literature review report and a full systematic review with distinct search, screening, extraction and report stages.

What you get
  • search_papers — semantic search across more than 138 million academic papers
  • search_trials — clinical trials from ClinicalTrials.gov
  • create_report and get_report — an AI literature review, started asynchronously and polled by session id
  • create_systematic_review and get_systematic_review — the full pipeline, with per-stage CSV and XLSX export URLs and report downloads
  • list_sessions and resume_session — your reports and reviews, and a way to continue one paused for quota
