Accelerate your workflow with Deep Research

While Scopus with AI is known for providing reliable and concise research summaries, Deep Research takes it a step further by producing comprehensive, well-reasoned reports in just minutes, a task that would typically take researchers' hours to accomplish. 

Designed to amplify your thinking, not replace it

Deep Research leverages agentic AI, with a reasoning engine designed to support complex research workflows. When you ask a question, it aims to go beyond summarizing information. It develops a detailed research plan, conducts extensive searches across the curated literature in Scopus, and refines its strategy as new insights emerge. All steps are guided by carefully designed prompts to uphold academic standards. 

The findings are then synthesized and shared in a comprehensive report that can save days of preliminary research while surfacing connections and perspectives to propel your next discovery.

Why users love Deep Research

The great thing about Deep Research is that you don’t have to worry about keywords or Boolean search strings. You can just enter your question using natural language. But to get the best results, it’s helpful to be specific and include context so that Deep Research correctly interprets your goal.

Deep Research can help facilitate your research objectives in a number of valuable ways, helping you: 

• Save time: Early adopters tell us that a Deep Research report can save them days of preliminary research, enabling focus on higher-value tasks

• Turn complexity into clarity: Researching complex topics typically requires multiple searches across unfamiliar domains and hours synthesizing findings. Deep Research reduces that burden, iteratively exploring your question, aggregating responses and delivering a comprehensive report 

• Get granular when needed: Refine your search with parameters like location, timeframe, or study type (e.g., “Include only review papers” or “Focus on studies from 2020-2024 with 50+ citations”). This ensures you can tailor your Deep Research report scope for grant applications, policy recommendations or interdisciplinary collaboration. 

• Built trust in your findings: Each action the AI system takes is shown on screen in real time. Based solely on peer-reviewed Scopus content vetted by experts, every report includes references and confidence scores for full transparency.

What's inside a Deep Research report?

There are legitimate concerns in academia and beyond that AI could stifle originality and critical thinking. These fears are often being fueled by the literature-review style reports some academic-grade agentic AI tools deliver. 

Given user feedback and in alignment with our principles, the tool is carefully designed to avoid mimicking important areas that require human creativity and input, for example a traditional literature review. That’s because we don’t want to replace the work of researchers, we want to support it, with insights that will guide you toward your next discovery.

Deep Research is designed to provide and highlight: 

• Direct answers to your query with transparent scope and assumptions 

• Unexpected connections that reveal new and interesting patterns 

• Research gaps and limitations that highlight opportunities for further exploration 

• Synthesized insights with actionable next steps
