2. Literature Review

Recent work has examined how generative AI reshapes consumer engagement across retail contexts [Chen, 2024]. Yet the literature remains thin on organisational drivers of adoption, particularly in mid-market settings

Tighten — “adoption” repeats. Try “uptake”.

A closer look

Tools built around how researchers actually work.

Each tool is built around a single step of the research process — opinionated defaults, export formats your supervisor and journal expect, and AI that cites every claim it makes.

Literature Review Studio

Go from 900 million papers to the twelve that actually matter.

One search across Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, CrossRef, CORE, and arXiv. AI ranks results by fit to your topic, drafts a paragraph-length summary for each paper, and lets you save only the ones worth citing.

  • Five academic indexes, one query, zero tabs.
  • Relevance score and abstract summary per paper.
  • One-click save to your Library.

2. Literature Review

Recent work has examined how generative AI reshapes consumer engagement across fashion retail contexts [Chen, 2024]. Yet the literature remains thin on the organisational drivers of adoption, particularly in mid-market omnichannel settings

Tighten this — you repeat “adoption” twice. Try “uptake”.

Citation Map

See which papers actually shape a field.

Plot your saved papers on a citation timeline. We trace who cites whom — backwards to foundational work, forwards to the newest follow-ups — so the papers worth your afternoon float to the top.

  • Timeline view of every saved paper and its citation links.
  • Seed papers ranked by in-network centrality, not raw citations.
  • Save the top 15 straight to your Library.
