Elsevier’s LeapSpace wins Best Generative AI Solution at the 2026 CODiE Awards

Elsevier announced today that LeapSpace™ has won Best Generative AI Solution at the 2026 CODiE Awards, the technology industry’s long-running peer-reviewed awards program.

The recognition highlights Elsevier’s leadership in responsible AI for research, and the growing need for AI solutions that are grounded in trusted scientific content, transparent in how they generate outputs, and designed to keep researchers in control.

LeapSpace is Elsevier’s research-grade AI workspace, designed to help academic and corporate researchers move from curiosity to discovery faster. Unlike general-purpose AI tools, LeapSpace is designed specifically for research workflows and institutions. It combines responsible AI with publisher-neutral scholarly content, traceable citations, Trust Cards, Claim Radar, Writing Coach, and other tools that help researchers explore evidence, test reasoning, and validate outputs with confidence. Elsevier develops LeapSpace hand in hand with its customers to drive ongoing innovation that keeps pace with the evolving needs of the research community.

Judy Verses, President, Academic and Government, Elsevier, said: “This CODiE Award is a testament to what makes LeapSpace different. Researchers need more than generic AI. They need trusted evidence, clear citations, transparent reasoning, and control over how insights are interpreted and used. LeapSpace was built with customers' needs at its core, and this recognition reflects the dedication of our colleagues who developed the solution and the customers and research communities who continue to shape it with us.”

Dr. Sunil Kumar Satpathy, Head of the Central Library, National Institute of Technology Raipur, India, said: “LeapSpace helps researchers overcome intense time pressure, information overload, and missed insights. It boosts efficiency in literature reviews, supports mission-oriented research, and helps identify research gaps and trends. Our researchers appreciate that LeapSpace provides comprehensive, peer-reviewed content and responsible AI in one place.”
